About Tallapoosa

Founded in 1902, Tallapoosa is a quiet, small-town community in the Missouri Bootheel's New Madrid County. Route 153 runs straight through town, making it easy for residents to commute to nearby communities like Gideon and Malden for work, groceries, and local K-12 schools. The surrounding area offers plenty of open farmland and peaceful rural living, while regional hubs and colleges like Three Rivers are an easy drive away. For anyone considering a move to Southeast Missouri, Tallapoosa provides simple, laid-back country living with close ties to neighboring towns.
