Welcome to Branson, Missouri.

Branson is a city located in Taney County, Missouri. It was named for Rueben Branson, operator of a general store in the area in the 1880s. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 6,050. Branson, Missouri may be known for its variety of live theater shows and theme parks, but there truly is "something for everyone" in Branson.

In addition to the great shows, Branson also is surrounded by the beautiful Ozark Mountains and three lakes - Table Rock Lake, Lake Taneycomo and Bullshoals, where lake recreation and fishing abound. Shopping is available at three huge outlet malls, specialties shops and antique stores, where you can find just about anything you're looking for.

Branson is also known for great restaurants and award-winning golf courses. So take a little time to see all that Branson has to offer.

The primarily residential city's economy is based on tourism, especially to theaters offering live, often lavish country-music shows. With over 30 entertainment theaters, Branson draws millions of visitors annually. Other attractions include the Veterans Memorial Museum, the Roy Rogers - Dale Evans Museum, a scenic railroad, lakes, and caverns. Nearby is the College of the Ozarks.
