About Moberly

Moberly is a welcoming mid-Missouri community of about 14,000 people and the county seat of Randolph County. Sitting right at the intersection of U.S. Routes 63 and 24, it gives residents a direct, easy drive south to Columbia while keeping everyday living quiet and affordable. The town grew rapidly as a railway hub in the late 1800s, earning the nickname the Magic City, and that railroad background is still a central part of the community's identity.

Day-to-day life here centers on reliable local amenities and plenty of green space. Families are served by the Moberly School District, and students have access to higher education right in town at Moberly Area Community College and Central Christian College of the Bible. Between the trails and recreation at Rothwell Park, the local railroad museum by the Municipal Auditorium, and a walkable downtown district, Moberly offers a comfortable small-city setting with essential services close at hand.
