Life in Missouri is pretty amazing. Whether we’ve lived in Missouri our entire lives or are relatively new, we can probably all agree that it’s the people that make our beloved state so special. We can also probably agree that these are just some of the things Missourians do better than anyone else.
- We know good food.
Facebook/Arthur Bryant’s Barbecue Two words: Burnt ends. Missouri boasts some of the best barbecue in the country, but it doesn’t stop there. How about gooey butter cake? Toasted ravioli? We know good food, and we know how to make good food.
- We’re creative.
Google/Paul It’s easy to find inspiration in Missouri which, in turn, propels our creativity. From a stroll through Mark Twain’s boyhood town of Hannibal to a peek at Cementland, we’re never far from that spark of inspiration.
- We’re adventurous.

- We’re all about relaxation.
Flickr/OakleyOriginals Sure, life can get downright stressful, but we know how to relax and let that stress melt away. From spending long summer days floating down the river to exploring all corners of the state on picturesque hikes, we have a ton of ways to kick back and relax.
- We know how to go with the flow.

- We’re always ready to lend a helping hand.

- We’re fun.

- We don’t scare easily.

- We’re welcoming.
