Nine towns, one courthouse

Mitchell County's nine communities

Beloit is the county seat. Cawker City, Glen Elder, Tipton, Hunter, Scottsville, Simpson, Asherville, and Solomon Rapids each have their own polling place, school district, and County contact, and most County errands end the same way from any of them.
