1 nursing job in Hermitage, MO

Hermitage does not have named urban neighborhoods; it is a small Hickory County township (population 906) with a suburban-rural mix where most people own rather than rent. Housing clusters on streets such as Cedar Crest Drive, with the cheapest parts of town in the south and the most expensive in the southeast.

Nearby Wheatland (Canyon Drive and Missouri 254) functions as the closest sister community, along with Pittsburg, Preston, Cross Timbers, and Weaubleau. The character is a mature, homeowner-heavy, quietly residential place with smaller households, many recent movers, and a large retiree presence rather than a young-professional district.

Niche reports Hermitage Township median home value $139,500 and median rent $475, with 69% owners and 31% renters. Bestneighborhood puts city median home cost at $68,647 (Missouri average $194,908), average rent $910/month, 77.40% owners and 22.17% renters, and average household income $2,681/month, with renters spending about 33.93% of income on rent.

The cheapest areas are in the southern parts of town; the southeastern regions are the most expensive. Listings cited include 25267 and 25193 Cedar Crest Drive in Hermitage and nearby Wheatland properties on Canyon Drive and Missouri 254.

A car is required for nearly every trip: AreaVibes scores walkability, shopping, transit, and bike friendliness all 1/10, with errands planned as drives and cycling mainly for leisure. Niche grades commute B minus and notes schools are a short trip into the surrounding area rather than in a walkable core.

No hospital campuses, parking rules, or named transit lines appear in the sources, and the local economy is described as a developing base rather than a job-dense medical corridor.

The named in-town option is Crappie Hole Bar & Grill, Tripadvisor’s top Hermitage restaurant at 4.4/5 from 17 reviews, a bar-and-grill where diners singled out chicken fried chicken portions. Yelp lists MeMaw's Shake Shack among local things to do.

For a lake-side bite, Missouri State Parks notes a snack bar at Pomme de Terre State Park (and another at Harry S Truman State Park). Sources do not describe a coffee scene, late-night district, or restaurants clustered near a hospital.

Niche says Hermitage Township has a lot of parks and grades outdoor activities B; AreaVibes scores parks and recreation 1/10 and treats the outdoors as a planned drive. Missouri State Parks names Pomme de Terre State Park and Harry S Truman State Park as nearby lake parks with beach/lake snack bars.

Yelp lists Fantastic Caverns as a historical-tour outing in Hermitage-area results. State-level writing adds Ozarks lakes, fishing, hunting, boating, and hiking as the Missouri outdoor pattern, not Hermitage-specific trail names.

Nightlife is graded C on Niche, and the only named social venue in town sources is Crappie Hole Bar & Grill. No festivals, theaters, music halls, or sports teams are identified for Hermitage itself.

State-level Missouri writing points to Branson entertainment, wine country, and craft beer as statewide draws, not as Hermitage amenities.

Niche grades weather B but does not describe summer heat, winter snow, humidity, or storm season for Hermitage. Statewide sources mention outdoor recreation year-round (hiking, fishing, hunting, boating) and even a blizzard-on-the-highway anecdote, without month-by-month Hermitage climate detail.

Public schools serving the township include Hermitage Elementary (B+), Wheatland Elementary (B), Hermitage Middle (B minus), Hermitage High (C+, 3.6/5 from 5 reviews), and Wheatland High (C). Niche grades public schools B minus overall and good-for-families C, while the about blurb calls local public schools above average.

This is not a young-family town on paper: 44% of residents are 65+, versus 8% under 10 and 5% ages 10–17. Crime and safety grades are unavailable (no violent or property crime rates published). Median household income is $30,703.

AreaVibes frames Hermitage as a peaceful, quietly residential setting (noise 10/10) with an independent rather than tightly knit community feel, and a livability score of 54 that ranks #788 in Missouri and better than only 18% of U.S. areas. Niche describes a conservative, park-dotted township where many retirees live and most people own their homes, but it has no resident reviews yet.

Broader Missouri commenters say the state is beautiful if you want outdoors and a lower cost of living, while noting it is a red state; they are not speaking about Hermitage specifically.
