Alton, IL Apartments for Rent
Alton sits 25 miles due north of Downtown Saint Louis, but the city is not easily accessible by interstate. The iconic Clark Bridge connects the Alton Riverfront with a road that goes more than five miles before it finds one of the area's interstate highways. Alton's lack of direct access adds to the city's small-town charm within a large metropolitan district.
Located a few miles north of where the Missouri and Mississippi rivers converge, Alton plays a prominent role in the Saint Louis area for several reasons. Residents love the refined architecture of the homes and buildings constructed during the early 1830s. Just a few miles north of the central business district, large limestone bluffs hover over the Mississippi River. Great Rivers National Scenic Byway attracts visitors from all over the region, especially during fall when the oak and elm trees radiate their multicolored brilliance.
