Mizzou is the heart of Columbia. Though we are a college town, there is something for everyone here. Though most of the excitement is downtown, there is plenty of fun things, from mini-golf to festivals, in the outer parts of the city. One of the best things about Columbia is our celebration of diversity. We have many LGBTQIA+ friendly spaces and are very supportive of all of our minorities. No matter what it is you’re looking for, Columbia has something for everyone.

Columbia is a college town in the heart of Missouri. This city of 108,000 people is home to the University of Missouri, Columbia College, Stephens College, and several other adjunct campuses, including Westminster and William Woods colleges. The city has a lively downtown district with unique restaurants and bars, one-of-a-kind specialty shops, a piano bar, and canvas painting classes for all ages. Despite the multitude of art and sporting events, parks and recreation opportunities, and shopping adventures, Columbia is still considered a “small town” by the people living there. Rush hour is hardly a rush, and weekends are leisurely. Neighbors wave to one another, and the mailman offers a smile as he moves on to the next box.
