Anniston, MO

Anniston sits in Missouri's Bootheel, a small farming community near the Arkansas border. Take I-55 to Exit 44 at Sikeston, then head east on US 62. Most visitors arrive from St. Louis (150 miles north) or Memphis (90 miles south) via the interstate. The town lies in the fertile Mississippi River floodplain, known for cotton and soybean farming. It's located just miles from where the devastating New Madrid earthquakes of 1811-1812 reshaped the landscape.
