The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Property Ratings at The Continental Life Building
The worst place to live. They are disgusting. Elevators constantly broken, dirty and full of vomit. Trash rooms overflowing and not clean or emptied for months. Constant flooding and sewer spills will destroy your apartment and belongings. Management does nothing to fix problems and paints over the most recent flooding without properly cleaning and sanitizing. Run.

We’d love for you to come see the new and improved living experience for yourself — we think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by all the positive changes!
Property Manager at The Continental Life Building, Responded To This Review
Hello! We are thrilled to be under new management as of November 2021 and have so many positive changes happening now and coming soon. Come see us for yourself.
This was the worst place I have ever lived. There was spilled beer in the elevators every weekend night, maybe an inch thick. Trash everywhere. Security is a joke. People prop the doors open and people from the streets come in and follow you. There have been break-ins by drugged out pan handlers in the past. Cars are broken into regularly in the parking garage. Students from SLU that live here are the worst of the worst. Loud parties and throwing things out windows and from the higher balconies. It's really dangerous! I caution anyone wanting to rent here to be careful and be aware. It's beautiful and historical, but the residents and the management are terrible.
