List Of Villages In Missouri
In Missouri, villages are municipalities which incorporated with a population under 500. If the population is larger than 500, it must incorporate as a city (see List of cities in Missouri). If the population increases beyond 500 after incorporation, a vote may be held to change to a city government, but it is not automatic. In many cases, villages are called "towns", but under Missouri statutes, "towns" do not exist. Villages are governed by a board of trustees. Below is a list of villages in Missouri, arranged in alphabetical order.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, villages and/or missouri:
“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
“I made a list of things I have
to remember and a list
of things I want to forget,
but I see they are the same list.”
—Linda Pastan (b. 1932)
“Remember the rights of the savage, as we call him. Remember that the happiness of his humble home, remember that the sanctity of life in the hill villages of Afghanistan, among the winter snows, is as inviolable in the eye of Almighty God, as can be your own.”
—W.E. (William Ewart)
“Slavery is founded in the selfishness of man’s nature—opposition to it, is [in?] his love of justice.... Repeal the Missouri compromise—repeal all compromises—repeal the declaration of independence—repeal all past history, you still can not repeal human nature. It still will be the abundance of man’s heart, that slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart, his mouth will continue to speak.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
