Crawford has more than 60 employees and serves more than 30,000 Missourians through about 21,500 meters and nearly 3,000 miles of distribution line. Located an easy 75-minute drive from St. Louis, Crawford Electric is in a growth area that still retains a ruggedly rural character, with a current density of about 7 meters per mile. Our service area includes forested hills, open pastures and natural streams surrounding Interstate 44 southwest of St. Louis.
