Where the Bootheel meets the hills — cropland and deer woods.

Cape Girardeau County marks the northern gateway to the Bootheel, where the flat lowlands meet the rising Ozark escarpment along the Mississippi River. This is the region's most varied ground: fertile bottomland along the river and the Whitewater and Castor drainages gives way to rolling, timbered hills to the west. That mix suits buyers who want both worlds — productive cropland of soybeans, corn, and wheat in the bottoms, and wooded uplands that hold whitetail and turkey. Rivers and creeks thread the county, adding waterfowl to the flooded lowlands and fishing to the mix. For a land buyer seeking farm income and genuine hill-country hunting within reach of the delta, Cape Girardeau offers the fullest blend in southeast Missouri.
