Why the rate here is not the whole story
Missouri charges 4.225 percent statewide and then stacks a county rate, city rates and special district rates whose boundaries do not follow county lines, so a single rate for the whole county does not exist. The county itself levies 1.188 percent countywide. The floor of 5.413 percent is state plus county in unincorporated areas with no city and no district. The ceiling of 9.413 percent is at Lebanon, on top of Fountains CID. That ceiling comes from a community improvement district, which in Missouri can cover a single shopping center or one development rather than a whole city, so most addresses pay less. Missouri's address level rate map is required by RSMo 32.310 and is operated for the Department of Revenue on a vendor domain, which is the map dor.mo.gov itself links.
How do I find the exact rate for an address in Laclede County?
Use Missouri's own address lookup, which the state designates and an outside provider runs for it. In Laclede County the rate depends on the address, anywhere from 5.413% to 9.413%.
