Morgan County Sheriff's Dept
In reference to the completed 2021 State Vehicle Stops Report, the Lake of the Ozarks is a large tourist desitination for the state of Missouri. The county of Morgan is located on the north side of the Lake of the Ozarks and on the east side of Truman Lake. During the spring and summer months upwards of 100,000 people travel through our area on any given weekend. That amount of traffic skews the data on related traffic stops in our county. As such, any statistics based only on the population of Morgan County could be inaccurate.
