Unincorporated community in Missouri, U.S. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Portland is an unincorporated community in southeastern Callaway County, Missouri, United States.[1] It is part of the Jefferson City, Missouri Metropolitan Statistical Area. Portland is located just north of the Missouri River on Route 94, approximately 24 miles east-northeast of Jefferson City.[2]
The village was laid out in 1831.[3] Its location directly on the Missouri River made it a popular shipping point for the farms and plantations of Callaway County. The name Portland stems from that activity.[4]
