About Mount Vernon and the Southwest Region of MissouriCentury 21 New Beginnings serves Lawrence County and Surrounding Area
Mount Vernon, Missouri is a unique community and would be a great place to live and work. It possesses, within its city boundaries, everything that is "small-town" America: from public gatherings on the lawn of the historic courthouse to friends and family gatherings at more than a half-dozen parks found throughout the town.
Mount Vernon even offers a 25-cent city taxi service. The people of Mount Vernon have always rallied around the concept of "growing together." At the same time they honor tradition, they are also embracing the future. Mount Vernon, being rich in history, is also a growing city. Located on one of America's major east-west corridors, Mount Vernon continues to draw interest from industrial and commercial prospects throughout the region and abroad. In addition, community leaders work hard to keep the town's traditions intact. Yet no matter how much Mount Vernon grows in the future, it will always honor it's past.
Size & Population
Mount Vernon is within driving distance to the Ozarks, Branson, Springfield and Joplin, Missouri to name just a few. The 2000 census put Mount Vernon's population at 4,017. Small enough to know your neighbors, yet large enough to hold events such as Apple Butter Makin' Days.
Mount Vernon is located along Interstate 44, midway between Springfield and Joplin. It is the gateway to Rt. 265, the scenic "Ozark Mountain Parkway" shortcut to the Branson area.
