As it extends beyond city limits, Jefferson Street becomes Route Z to both the north and south, gradually transitioning into open farmland and rural countryside. Route Z south provides a scenic drive toward Columbia, making it a popular route for those who enjoy a quieter and more picturesque commute.

Companies located along or near Jefferson Street include Hubbell Power Systems Inc., MFA Incorporated, Lacrosse Lumber, and several other local and regional operations that contribute to the city’s strong economic base. This concentration of employers makes the area especially attractive for residents seeking proximity to work and daily conveniences.
Jefferson Street is conveniently located near Highway 22, which runs east and west and offers quick access to Mexico, Missouri and surrounding communities. It also provides easy access to Highway 63, a scenic and well-traveled route leading to Columbia and other charming small towns throughout central Missouri.
