Billboard density along Missouri's highways

Last updated: April 2, 2025

On this map, Missouri's highways are divided into segments roughly one mile long. Each highway segment's color and thickness indicates the number of billboards within 1,000 feet of it. Three mile-long segments had more than 20 billboards: I-35 near the Kansas border, US-65 south of Springfield, and US-54 near the Lake of the Ozarks.
