County Info

Welcome to Monroe County MO

Located in the northeast region of Missouri, Monroe County has a population of 8,666 according to the most recent census conducted in 2020. The county seat of Monroe County is Paris. This county is known as the birthplace of the famous American writer Mark Twain, who spent his early childhood in the area.

Monroe County was established on January 6, 1831, and was named after James Monroe, the fifth President of the United States. During the early settlement of the region, many migrants from the Upper South, especially Kentucky and Tennessee, made their way to Monroe County. They brought with them their traditions of slaveholding and agriculture, cultivating crops such as tobacco and hemp that were similar to those grown in Middle Tennessee and Kentucky. The settlers also brought with them the distinctive antebellum architecture and culture of their home states. The county became known as the heart of "Little Dixie" due to its strong Southern influence.

Today, Monroe County is a rural area with a rich history and cultural heritage. Visitors can explore sites related to Mark Twain's early life, as well as other historic landmarks and museums. The county also offers outdoor recreational opportunities, including hunting, fishing, and camping.
