Saint Louis
Stretched along the Mississippi River, Saint Louis is the second most populous city in Missouri. Regarded as the Gateway to the West, Saint Louis was the starting point of Lewis and Clark’s infamous expedition. Saint Louis’ most iconic landmark, the Gateway Arch, is a memorial celebrating the nation’s westward expansion. In addition to its rich history, Saint Louis offers residents access to exceptional amenities and culture. An apartment in Saint Louis affords you the opportunity to climb sculptures composed of reclaimed building materials at the one-of-a-kind City Museum, or watch the Cardinals play ball at Busch Stadium. Hit the town and catch a performance at the Fabulous Fox, or indulge in some retail therapy at the massive Saint Louis Outlet Mall. There’s incredible architecture to admire in the Washington Avenue Historic District, or you could experience the flora and fauna on display at the Saint Louis Zoo and Missouri Botanical Garden. Convenient Interstates make exploring the Saint Louis area and the national forests to the south a breeze.
O'Fallon
Mix a fantastic location with a beautiful community near the Mississippi River, sprinkle in terrific parks and historic sites, and add a dash of excellent location and strong economy, and the result is definitely a treat! So much so that O'Fallon consistently ranks on Money Magazine's "Best 100 Places to Live" list. As one of the largest cities in the St. Louis metro area, O'Fallon is directly north of the river, bordering the Weldon Spring Conservation Area. Nearby destinations are plentiful -- Mid Rivers Mall, Lake Saint Louis, St. Louis Premium Outlets, Chesterfield Mall, Maryville University, Hollywood Casino & Hotel St. Louis, the St. Charles Convention Center are all minutes away from O'Fallon. And while there are plenty of employers near O'Fallon (including the GM Wentzville Assembly Center), commutes into Downtown St. Louis only take about 30 minutes.
Lake Saint Louis
Nestled in western Saint Charles County, Lake Saint Louis is a planned community providing abundant recreational opportunities along with the many benefits of suburban living. Lake Saint Louis’ two pristine lakes are popular destinations for a host of water-based activities, including boating, water-skiing, fishing, and swimming. What was once a private lakeside neighborhood in the 60s has become a thriving community with a pristine aquatic calling card at its center. Several parks, golf courses, playgrounds, and a national equestrian center offer even more options for outdoor recreation in Lake Saint Louis. When you’re not enjoying the outdoors, retreat to an apartment, townhome, or single-family dwelling in one of the city’s many peaceful neighborhoods to unwind. The community also comes together every Saturday for the Lake St. Louis Farmers Market, which runs from April to November. Suburban staples like national retailers and chain restaurants abound in Lake Saint Louis’ modern shopping centers, the Meadows and the Shops at Hawk Ridge. In addition to fashion and food, these shopping centers also host a bevy of year-round celebrations for the community. There’s a number of top-rated schools in the area, some of which local students prefer to walk to. Convenience to I-64 and I-70 makes commuting to Saint Louis from Lake Saint Louis a breeze, but you may find it hard to leave such a scenic locale.
