Berkeley is a small suburb of Saint Louis that’s home to the Saint Louis Lambert International Airport. The airport isn’t only a convenience for residents, but it also provides an abundance of job opportunities, as does Downtown Saint Louis. Residents of Berkeley can travel into Downtown along Interstate 70 in about twenty minutes. Saint Louis provides excellent restaurants, riverfront green spaces, historic monuments, museums, theatres, and professional sporting events.
This city is mainly made up of residential neighborhoods and the airport. However, a few small businesses, public schools, and restaurants sit within the town as well. After you find your affordable home in Berkeley, take a visit to the James S. McDonnel Prologue Room, an interesting museum exploring aviation history, directly next to the airport.
