"Located mid-way (along I-44, Exits 184-189) between St. Louis and Springfield, and 60 miles south of Jefferson City,
Rolla was recently designated as one of the 100 best small towns in America. Its rolling hills serve as home to a population
of 16,000 in addition to the 7,000 students of the University of Missouri-Rolla, one of the nation's leading technological
universities. The surrounding Ozark countryside, Mark Twain National Forest, and National Scenic Riverways provide a host of
recreational activities"

Rolla is also the home of a regional center of the US Geological Survey, a number of educational institutions,
and some high-Tech companies (see below).
