The Drury University campus sits right between Midtown and Downtown Springfield, just a few blocks from Park Central square. The surrounding neighborhoods are largely residential, and there are numerous affordable apartments, houses, and condos within easy walking distance of campus and the city center. Living near campus gives you enviable access to the city’s best attractions, including Hammons Field, Jordan Valley Park, and the diverse dining and nightlife downtown.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
