Pike County, Missouri

Pike Location Map Missouri

Pike County is a mix of rolling hills and flatlands. It borders Illinois to the east with the Mississippi River forming the boundary. Bowling Green is the county seat.

The county’s got some serious history too. It was founded way back in 1818, before Missouri was even a state. Hannibal isn’t too far away, so there’s a bit of that Mark Twain vibe.

While farmers grow corn and soybeans, locals love to fish and boat on the river. And ever heard of Louisiana? No, not the state. It’s actually a city in Missouri. It’s in Pike County.
