List of cities in Missouri

Missouri is a state located in the Midwestern United States. In Missouri, cities are classified into three types: Class 3, Class 4, and those under constitutional charters. A few older cities are incorporated under legislative charters (Carrollton, Chillicothe, LaGrange, Liberty, Miami, Missouri City, and Pleasant Hill) which are no longer allowed. The level at which they incorporate is determined by their population when they incorporate. They do not change if they gain or lose in population, unless a vote is held by the people.

Map of the United States with Missouri highlighted

A municipality incorporates as a Class 4 city if the population is between 500 and 2,999 (under 500, it may incorporate as a village[1] – see list of villages in Missouri). It may incorporate as a Class 3 city if the population is between 3,000 and 29,999. There is more flexibility in government for Class 3 cities than Class 4.

Cities under constitutional charters may operate under any form of municipal government if it is enacted in the city's charter.
