Living in Columbia, MO
In the early 1800s, Columbia grew as a trading post on the Santa Fe and Oregon Trails. Since it was created, the city has always had the three important economic foundations of education, medicine and insurance. The 1840s saw the birth of the University of Missouri after Boone County residents out pledged six other counties to build the university.
Today, the university is the source of intense local pride. Columbia is a center for education, research and innovation, but still fosters a unique southern flavor. The city is very safe, has a good public school system and is also very bike friendly. With a number of public parks, interesting trails and easy access to the Ozarks, apartments in Columbia are a great home for people who love to spend time outdoors.
