== Fun facts ==
* Portageville is named for the nearby Portage Bayou.
* Portageville has more to offer than New Madrid does, partly due to being along I-55. The city has a McDonald's, a Sonic Drive-In, a Casey's General Store, a Subway, and a small motel called the New Orleans Inn. That's really about it, though, other than local stuff.
* Portageville also has a small research center.
