Nestled between the hills of the Aux Arcs Mountains, and snuggled up close to the Finley River, is the City of Ozark. Established 150 years ago, the town was built on a philosophy of life that persists today-- "Progress with Pride." That slogan graces every Christian County Sheriff's car, and is foremost in the plans of our effective and progressive city administration. Community goals and objectives are set yearly to keep Ozark the most up-to-date, yet, livable city in Missouri.

Located at the crossroads of Highways 14 and 65, Ozark offers the best of Missouri Ozark Mountain Country. Close by--to the north--is the finest in medical facilities, while, to the south, some of the best entertainment in the US (and even the world) can be found in Branson, Missouri. Needless to say, Ozark continues to maintain that small-town atmosphere and pace of life that makes this city special. Less hustle and bustle, and more time to enjoy family, and friends--it's a glimpse of what life in Ozark is all about.

Hills, trees, streams, rivers, fantastic scenery complete with boating, fishing and hunting are only a few reasons why people in this area are proud to call Ozark their home. Ozark also provides residents, and visitors-alike, opportunities to experience what Ozark hospitality is all about. People just don't get any friendlier than they are here.

From our Chamber of Commerce-sponsored events to our churches and civic groups, Ozark offers something for everyone. Each year thousands visit the city to view the County Fair, the annual Rodeo and Bull Ride, the Ozark Native Arts and Crafts Festival, and Ozarks Festival of Lights. People also enjoy shopping in the beautiful arts, crafts and collectibles shops. As a matter of fact, there are so many original craft pieces, that Ozark has been named the antique capital of the world.

Other merchants also provide for all the needs and pleasures of those living or visiting here. Buyers and browsers can choose from historic square shops to the latest in shopping malls. The schools are among the finest in the area, and recreation opportunities abound. Couple this with the best in city services, and it is no wonder Ozark continues to attract new families, businesses and industry to this active and progressive town. Discover Ozark today, and see why others find it the best place to live and work.
