Maryville, MO
Metro Area Profile
20,774 residents. Jobs, income, development, climate and physical risk across the Maryville, MO metropolitan area.
Missing required signal: opportunity. AreaProfile withholds a score rather than inferring the missing dimensions.
55 housing units were authorized over the past twelve months, within 15% of the prior year — steady rather than turning.
Rent takes 16% of median household income here, below the 30% threshold conventionally called cost-burdened, and the median home is 3.0 times that income.
A typical July reaches 85°F and a typical January falls to 15°F, on thirty-year normals.

Housing & affordability
How it’s calculated →Median rent of $786 takes 16% of median household income, below the 30% threshold at which a household is considered cost-burdened.
A median home costs 3.0 times median household income here, close to the historic benchmark for an affordable market.
| Metric | Value | Compared nationally | Source period |
|---|---|---|---|
| Home price to income | 2.99 | Bottom 39%of 935 | 2024 ACS 5-Year |
| Homeownership rate | 62.3% | Bottom 14%of 935 | 2024 ACS 5-Year |
| Housing units ±48 | 9,536 | Bottom 3%of 935 | 2024 ACS 5-Year |
| Median gross rent ±$42 | $786 | Bottom 11%of 935 | 2024 ACS 5-Year |
| Median home value ±$14,896 | $177,500 | Bottom 34%of 935 | 2024 ACS 5-Year |
| Rent as a share of income | 15.9% | Bottom 19%of 935 | 2024 ACS 5-Year |
| Vacancy rate | 11.3% | Top 50%of 935 | 2024 ACS 5-Year |
Both affordability measures come from the same ACS release as the income they are compared with, so the comparison is like for like. They describe housing cost against local earnings and are not a cost-of-living index — transport, groceries, healthcare, insurance and taxes are not included, and a place can look affordable here and still be expensive to live in for reasons this does not capture.
Growth & development
How it’s calculated →An AreaProfile calculation combining permit volume per resident, its direction over one and three years, population change and employment growth. Permit volume alone is not the measure.
Population has fallen 2% since 2020, reaching 20,503 in 2024.
New construction is predominantly single-family: only 0% of permitted units are in buildings of five or more homes.
At 2.6 permitted units per 1,000 residents, building activity is below the median for measured US metros.
Weather & climate
5 of the twelve months have a normal average temperature between 55°F and 80°F. July averages a high of 85°F and January a low of 15°F.
| Metric | Value | Source period |
|---|---|---|
| Average January low | 15°F | 1991-2020 Normals |
| Average July high | 85°F | 1991-2020 Normals |
| Comfortable months | 5 | 1991-2020 Normals |
| Seasonal temperature swing | 51°F | 1991-2020 Normals |
Climate figures are thirty-year normals, not current conditions. They describe what a typical year looks like rather than what the weather is doing today.
Physical risk
The hazards accounting for most of this area's expected annual loss are inland flooding, tornado and drought.
Overall hazard risk is lower than 88% of measured US metros.
Low or minimal exposure: landslide, lightning, wildfire, ice storm, earthquake.
Hazard ratings are AreaProfile calculations derived from the FEMA National Risk Index v1.20.0 (December 2025). FEMA publishes at county level. This value is the population-weighted mean of all component counties; expected annual loss is their sum. FEMA does not endorse this presentation. Higher physical resilience means lower exposure.
What this profile does not cover
Three things people look for are missing from every AreaProfile page, and each is missing for a reason rather than by oversight. The Area Score is calculated without them and the weighting is documented on the methodology page.
- Reported crime
- Offences reported to police are published by department rather than by town, and only where a department reported every month of the year. No municipal department reports for this place — many smaller communities are policed by the county — so there is no figure to show. A partial year is never scaled up to look complete, and arrest counts or news volume are never substituted for it.
- Taxes
- Taxes are not published: no source covers them nationally with a method open enough to check. Cost of living now is — the index above is the Bureau of Economic Analysis price parity for this area — but it is a price level for all consumption rather than a budget for a household, its spread is driven mostly by housing, and it excludes taxes. Housing affordability is computed separately from rent, price and income, because that answers a narrower and more actionable question. Nothing here is individualised tax advice.
- Anything about a specific address
- Every figure describes an area, not a street or a house. School attendance zones, insurance pricing and the character of a neighbourhood all vary within the places measured here.
Access
3 major airports lie within 100 miles, the nearest 41 miles away.
| Airport | Code | Distance | Longest runway |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rosecrans Meml | STJ | 41 mi | 8,061 ft |
| Kansas City Intl | MCI | 74 mi | 10,801 ft |
| Eppley Airfield | OMA | 84 mi | 9,502 ft |
Airport identity, position and runway data come from the FAA. “Major airport” is an AreaProfile classification — a public-use civil airport with a paved runway of at least 8,000 feet — not an FAA hub designation. Distances are straight-line, not driving distance.
