About Poplar Bluff
Poplar Bluff is a city in Butler County, Missouri, with a population of about 16,243. Known as the Gateway to the Ozarks, it sits along the Black River on a bluff once covered with tulip poplar trees. The city was incorporated in 1849 when Butler County was organized, and it was chosen as the county seat. Poplar Bluff is historically notable for a devastating tornado in 1927 that caused significant destruction and loss of life. It lies at the crossroads of U.S. Route 60 and U.S. Route 67, making it accessible by car. Nearby cities include St. Louis, Memphis, and Nashville. The area is part of the Three Rivers region, with a landscape dividing the Ozark foothills from the Mississippi embayment.
