Town and Country is a city in west St. Louis County, Missouri, United States with a population of 10,815 as of the 2010 census.^[8]

Town and Country has the highest median household income ($134,387 in 2009)^[3] of any city in Missouri with a population over 10,000 and also has one of the highest median incomes of any city in the world. The city is included in the St. Louis, MO-IL Metropolitan Statistical Area, and is home to Bellerive Country Club, which hosted the 1965 U.S. Open,^[9] the 1992 PGA Championship, and the 2018 PGA Championship.

Originally, it was primarily made up of large residential lots. The community first incorporated in 1950 as a village. The incorporation and establishment of a combination Public Safety Department providing three firefighters and one police officer on duty was to provide lower fire insurance rates for residents. The Village changed to city status in 1974 in an effort to increase property taxes. The maximum “Village” tax rate could no longer sustain the modest city government. In 1983 annexation of a large area to the west more than doubled the size of the city. This caused the city to maintain a police department and contract fire and EMS service to a neighboring fire district.

The original country charm of larger lots with white fences and grazing horses is hard to find, however there are a few exceptions. There are several large tracts of land that remain undeveloped. The area offers a quiet, restful, green residential landscape, in contrast to the more intensely developed areas typical of St. Louis County. There are relatively few commercial development areas. The predominant commercial locations tend to be at the periphery of the city boundaries along the regional arterials, and/or at the intersections of the major roads.

Town and Country was incorporated in 1950 as a village [1], and re-incorporated as a fourth-class city 25 years later.
