Parkway, MO

Parkway is a Franklin County village in east-central Missouri, established in 1941 and set about two miles west of the Meramec River. The village lies in the St. Clair R-13 school district and in a county where farms, bluffs, and river recreation stretch between the St. Louis metro area and the smaller towns of the Meramec corridor. Parkway's location gives it a rural edge, but its municipal ties reach into neighboring St. Clair and Franklin County. The river is close enough to shape the village's recreation outlook.

The practical map is shared. Franklin County provides police service, St. Clair supplies fire and ambulance coverage, and the village handles board meetings, public works calls, trash arrangements, and ordinances. Meramec State Park and other county river places bring camping, floating, and fishing within the broader local orbit. Parkway is a compact Missouri village whose character comes from the Meramec landscape, a school district connection, and the interlocking services that keep a small municipality running.
