I don't know, 2be... It's just a rural farming community similar to what you're wanting in MO. Nothing more and nothing less. Why your relatives are broke, I dunno. On a more serious note, I'm not sure the thing to do is ask us Missourians to talk dirty about our own state. The same state many of us have provided you and others with helpful information on various locales that spark an interest. I appreciate your sense of humor in response to mine, but I kind of took your thread as biting the hand that feeds you. ~MoNat.

ahhhhhhhh no do not take me wrong please!! I am not out to talk dirty on a area .. gosh no .. the more remote the more peace it should bring

Ya know the Jerry show - the few times I have seen it .......my sister in law could of been on that show ............ seriously! I just need to know the area ..........for many different reasons .. NOT to talk dirty on any area!!!

Ok bottom liine is she came to town ..gave this hard knock story to family - and walked away with one of our elderly aunts retirement funds! >>>> so I have reasons to know this area .... because I MIGHT need to be finding her! OK thats the part I did not want to say!

Missouri is a area that I LOVE!! OMG no way would I talk dirt on it... I know there are areas that are remote and I know there are areas that move a little slower than other places in the world - thats what I dream of having!!!

naa don't take me the wrong way ..maybe my nerves are shot and I am tired and aggravated ... I have a saying that I say .. do what ya want to me but do not harm a child or an elderly person ............ then I become a mean person to deal with ..and well my lovely sister in law ... is gonna meet t he mean side!

Putnam County is very rural with a few CAFOs around. Most jobs are farm related with little in the way of non-farm employment. The nearest larger town is Kirksville. Putnam County is also the least diverse county in Missouri.

Default Putnam County

Just to prevent any confusion, let me say that Kirksville is in Adair county, not Putnam. The largest town in Putnam County is the county seat, Unionville. That's all I better say!

That is correct. The nearest "big" town from Putnam County is Kirksville. Extreme southern IA is also very rural.

If you enjoy being in the middle of nowhere, Putnam county is an awesome place to be.

Otherwise-

Kirksville, is just a couple steps above a small town. Yes, they have a wal-mart and a college. But, it just has nothing to offer that a true "city" does.

So, the nearest real "city" to Putnam is KC, perhaps 3 to 4 to 5 hours away?

The thing that really bugged me the very most about living in the Putnam county area was radio. I hated every radio station that could be received there with a fervent passion that bordered on zeal. Now days, Sirius satellite radio could fix that, but I will never forget hearing F'n "stairway to heaven" every 15 minutes for 4 years straight on 94.5 FM.............
