The lay of the land around Columbia
Town lots cluster around Columbia, the county seat, and Ashland, Centralia, Hallsville, and Rocheport. Smaller places such as Bourbon, Browns, and Claysville appear on the county map as little clusters of lots. Census Bureau estimates put Boone County at about 189,463 residents in 2023 on roughly 686 square miles of land. Subdivision lots dominate the county map around Rocheport, and open tracts are scarce. Boone County was organized in 1820, so deeds for older farms near Hallsville can run back a long way.

Why the township matters
In Boone County, township boundaries decide which local office you deal with, so look it up well before you call about land near Bourbon. When you compare tax bills for land near Harrisburg, check whether the parcels sit in the same township; levies can differ across the line.
