City - Saint Louis

Sitting at the edge of the Mississippi River and standing tall with the Gateway Arch is St. Louis. Founded in 1764, this Midwestern hub has grown into a metro with over 2.8 million people.

When it comes to finding a place to live, St. Louis has a wide range of options without the high price tag found in other comparable cities. Renters can choose from beautifully restored brick row houses or lofts converted from historic warehouses. Upscale high-rise apartment communities downtown and garden-style options tucked into residential suburbs are housing options awaiting renters in St. Louis.

Washington University in St. Louis and Saint Louis University both call the city home, contributing to a bustling atmosphere and thriving cultural scene. St. Louis also hosts the beloved Fair St. Louis, a massive Fourth of July celebration held at the Arch grounds that draws thousands of visitors and has been a city tradition for decades.

School data provided by GreatSchools 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.
