Tipton is a small city located in Moniteau County, Missouri, with a population of nearly 4,000 people. It is situated along US Highway 50 and is the county seat of Moniteau County.

The town was founded in 1837 and named after Dr. Robert Tipton, the first settler in the area. Tipton grew slowly but steadily over the years, and in the late 19th century, the city began to manufacture agricultural tools and machinery, such as planters, cultivators, and windmills.

Today, Tipton is a small but vibrant community. Agriculture and manufacturing are still important economic drivers in the area, and the city is home to several small businesses, including restaurants, stores, and service businesses.

Tipton is also home to the Moniteau County Courthouse, which was built in 1882 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The courthouse is a beautiful example of classical architecture, with a grand entrance and red brick facade.

Tipton is also home to a number of churches, including the First United Methodist Church, which was established in 1839. The church is still active today and serves as a community gathering spot.

Tipton is a quiet, rural community with a strong sense of history and a vibrant local economy. It is a great place to live, work, and raise a family.
