What it’s like
The place. Pineville is a small city and the county seat of McDonald County, in the southwestern corner of Missouri, with Big Sugar Creek running in or beside town. Winters are cold, with some snow, and summers turn hot, with a fair amount of rain through the year. Fewer adults here hold a four-year degree than is typical, and more households live below the poverty line than across much of the country.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, shops, schools, hospitals and social care, and the building trades. Across McDonald County, the largest workplaces are Simmons Foods, Walmart and the McDonald County R-I school district. Unemployment in the county has eased a little over the past year, and the number of jobs has edged up.
Things to do. Big Sugar Creek State Park is a protected area a short drive away, and Bluff Dweller's Cave is a tourist attraction in the same easy reach. Jacobs Cavern, an archaeological site, is also a short drive off. For a longer outing, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art is a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Pineville’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on McDonald County.
