City Of Bernie

101 West Main Street
573-293-5318

Bernie, Missouri is a nice, clean, quiet community neighborhood where people choose to live because of the quality of life. We are blessed with fifteen churches, an excellent school system, city services, and fire and police protection. Great strides have been made to improve our downtown area. We have resurfaced 28,905 ft of streets and 11,681 ft of sidewalks in the past six years. We have also made several drainage improvements. In the same period we have welcomed BPS Telephone Company and Stoddard County Ambulance Service to Bernie, each having built new buildings. We have approved building permits to the tune of $3,000,000 in residential building and $1,629,000 plus in commercial building. We are also the home of Ames True/Temper handle mill and BCT's Manufacturing, maker of t-shirts, quilts, and other cut & sew items. We have one of the nicest park systems in the area which includes one large and two small parks, and also a fish pond stocked by the city. We were successful in being removed from the flood plain resulting in lower insurance rates for our young home buyers. We have a Zone C Class Insurance Rate.
