Southwest of Sikeston, US 60 passes in and out of several counties at intervals of just a few miles. This particular intersection, for Business US 60 going to the west side of Sikeston, is in New Madrid County. Sikeston itself is mostly in Scott County, but a small area of it is also in New Madrid County.
