What it’s like
The place. Truxton is a village in Lincoln County, Missouri, and a very small one, with very few people living in it. Life here moves at a small-village pace, where neighbors tend to know one another. Winters are cold and summers are hot, with a fair amount of rain and melted snow falling over the year.
Work. Residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, the building trades, manufacturing, and local shops. Across Lincoln County, unemployment has eased over the past year, and jobs have grown slightly.
Things to do. Rock Branch and Bear Creek both run in or beside town, so the rivers are close at hand. Cuivre River State Park is a protected area a longer drive away, for a fuller outing.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Truxton’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Lincoln County and the St. Louis, MO-IL metro.
