It has a population of approximately 10 full-time residents as of mid-2009, due to the flood of 2008.[2] The community is part of the Quincy, IL–MO Micropolitan Statistical Area. It is the westernmost community in Illinois. Meyer sits in a fertile flood plain along the east bank of the Mississippi River in northwestern Adams County. The river plays a significant role in the area's local economy. A large grain elevator lies to the south of the community.[3] Less than a mile from Meyer is the Canton, Missouri ferry landing that connects the community with the state of Missouri.[3] The ferry ceased operation in the spring of 2014.[4] Meyer has been affected by floods throughout its history, the most notable occurring in 1944 and 1993.[5] The community was again affected during an extensive flood event in June 2008. On June 18, the Meyer levee was compromised, although most of the residents had left following a voluntary order earlier in the week.[6] References1. ^{{gnis|413460|Meyer}} {{Adams County, Illinois}}{{AdamsCountyIL-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web | url = http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5hw95ek5Sllmi4SoQ_N4HJvwHE0ZAD91CM6SG4 | title = Ill. levee breaches force small town's evacuation | website = | publisher = Associated Press | date = 2008-06-18 | accessdate = 2008-07-10}}{{dead link|date=November 2012|bot=Legobot}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://users.stlcc.edu/jangert/meyer/meyer.html |title=Meyer, Illinois |work=The Mighty Mississippi River |publisher=Joe Angert |date= |accessdate=2008-07-10 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20060905200455/http://users.stlcc.edu/jangert/meyer/meyer.html |archivedate=September 5, 2006 }} 4. ^{{Cite web | url=http://www.connecttristates.com/news/story.aspx?id=1032815#.VXm0OvlVgg0 | title=Canton's ferry will never ride the Mississippi again| date=2014-04-17}} 5. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.dailyherald.com/story/print/?id=209576 | title = Illinois river towns fear repeat of 1993 | website = | publisher = Daily Herald (Arlington Heights, IL) | date = 2008-06-19 | accessdate = 2008-07-10}} 6. ^{{cite web | url = http://www.khqa.com/news/news_story.aspx?id=148404 | title = Meyer level breaches | website = | publisher = KHQA-TV | date = 2008-06-18 | accessdate = 2008-07-10 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20080620003506/http://www.khqa.com/news/news_story.aspx?id=148404 | archive-date = 2008-06-20 | dead-url = yes | df = }} 4 : Unincorporated communities in Adams County, Illinois|Quincy, Illinois micropolitan area|Unincorporated communities in Illinois|Illinois populated places on the Mississippi River |
