Wright County, Administrative division in Missouri, United States

Wright County spans 714 square miles of terrain with undulating landscapes, numerous small lakes, and 53 square miles of water surface throughout the region.

The county was established in 1855 and moved its administrative center from Monticello to Buffalo in 1868, marking a significant shift in local governance.

The county maintains strong German and Swedish influences from early settlers, reflected in local traditions across communities like Mountain Grove, Mansfield, and Hartville.

Interstate 94 and U.S. Highway 12 provide direct access to Wright County, connecting its communities to the broader Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington metropolitan area.

The elevation within Wright County varies significantly, ranging from 263 meters at its lowest point to 534 meters at its highest peak.
