you forgot one of the philosophies of the city: that "culture is not just for people with money" - the zoo is free, the muni opera and the symphany all have free seats in the back of the house.
I don't see St Louis as my overall favorite city, but it seemed to offer a good quality of life. Not very glamorous on paper but most can design any life they want. My biggest negative is the lack of regional growth strategy and concentrated poverty. Biggest pro is you get a lot of big city amenities without the hassle or cost of many other places.
I've lived in Camdenton Missouri my whole life. Love Lake of the Ozarks. I used to go to marching band competitions in St.Louis at the Edward Jones dome. Always loved going up there.
Any resident from any city in the US would say that their city sucks. I have lived in Miami for 20 years and this shit is so expensive, if you don't make 6 figures you will live paycheck to paycheck if you are single. I am moving to MO cuz rent in that state is like $800 for a studio in a luxury building. Here in Miami the same studio costs $2000
I’ve lived in St Louis many years. The summer weather is horrible- very hot. The restaurants and many cultural amenities- such as the symphony, museums and sports are excellent. Traffic problems are very few. I always hear about crime but have NEVER had a problem myself.
LOVED LOVED LOVED the video! Great job. I miss living in St. Louis; had homes in Shaw as well as on The Hill. Best wishes, Robert at Move to Chattanooga
Lived there for eight years in the late 80s/early 90s. Overall very enjoyable but so ridiculously hot in the summer. Like “don’t go out” hot. Winter is for sure punctuated by frequent ice storms and miserable cold stretches.
Yeah, have lived in St. Louis my whole life & haven’t found a place where summers are as hot/humid & miserable as St. Louis. I remain fully indoors in the summer & only go out if I HAVE to. That’s one of the reasons I’ll be retiring elsewhere (likely in/near the mountains) just as soon as I wind-up my career. But, this gentleman is correct about his assessment of St. Louis…it really DOES have a lot to offer and most of us live in the surrounding counties of St. Louis proper as the area is definitely spread-out.
I just drove across America these past three days and I remember St Louis as a really nice looking city similar to the charm and design of Boston Massachusetts. Was just curious of how living there is.
I am alomst 70 and have always lived here. I also went to UMSL many years ago. Very good education there without the big tuition. I agree with most you said. I worked many years with a very good brokerage called A.G. Edwards now part of Wells Fargo. I would say the winters are much milder than the North. The St. Louis region has really spread out in my lifetime beyond St. Louis county but grew up in the Southhampon neighborhood of the city. It is all abour risk tolerance to crime and watching the 10:00 News is like getting the daily crime report. There are good neighborhoods still in the city but just close to very poor areas riddled with crime (car jacking, stolen cars, broken windows, drive by shooting, teens walking streets with AR-15s) giving them risk as well but like said this is in common with most cities in the U.S.. I only seem to visit the city for Cardinals and Blues games. Soccer is big here thanks to the owners of Enterpsrse and others privately building the new stadium. Many years of Catholic youth leage soccer and now the largest Bosnian immigration in the U.S. help make it so. St. Louis got a bum rap when St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kronke preferred the large TV market of L.A. over a new downtown stadium St. Louis was prepared to build. The subject of Stan Kroenke unifies the people of St. Louis.
My mom still stay in fairground neighborhood. I remember the north city was nice back in the 80$. Cheaper that Houston Texas & miss riding the Metrolink that take you all over St Louis area... May be crazy up there but there's no place like home. Al yeah miss Imo's pizza 🍕🍕
I would recommend anyone who wants to move to Saint Louis to actually move to any of the suburbs west of the city limits. Definitely not any part of Metro East.
I might have to move out there for business for a few years. I don't care about schools or. sports I am more interested in culture like art museums etc
Awesome! Sounds like one of the neighborhoods close to Forest Park may be a good fit. That area has the St. Louis Art Museum, Missouri History Museum, The Muny, etc. Let us know if we can be of any assistance! Hey@LivingInStLouis.com
I LIVE DOWNTOWN ON THE LANDING. ADVICE : I DRESS SHABBILY LIKE I'M POOR AND TALK TO MYSELF AWAITING THE TRAIN TO WORK. THEY THINK I BELONG HERE AND LEAVE ME ALONE ! DOWNTOWN HAS MORE NUTS THAN A GEORGIA FIELD !!
We are moving over there in October because my husband got a job offer. We were actually there in 2020 during covid so we didn’t really experience all of the festivals or the nice cool restaurants in St. Louis. I would like to know more about the top schools and districts, we have a 5 year old son. We plan to live in St. Louis county Mo so hopefully we love living there.
Thank you for checking out the channel! If you’re interested in the best schools and districts, you’ve come to the right place! My wife is a teacher and my buyer’s agent who assists with property showings is a retired school principal from the area. I hope to do a video on local schools/districts at some point, but in the meantime, shoot me an email and we can send you some info! Hey@LivingInStLouis.com

Thanks Robert! Very much appreciate the support!
I came to the lake of the ozarks on a 2 week vacation 12 years ago for the first time and never left. It’s an amazing area.
Heading to the lake tomorrow for a long weekend. Love it! Thanks for checking out the channel!
Personally, if it wasn't for my dad being alone here, I'd leave and go someplace else.
Definitely understandable bro

How about a guide to real estate investing in St Louis?
Good idea! Thanks for checking out the channel!
I would recommend anyone who wants to move to Saint Louis to actually move to any of the suburbs west of the city limits. Definitely not any part of Metro East.
Tornados in the st.Louis area is not occasional it happens a few times a year in multiple municipalities that are right next to st.Louis.
Thank you for taking the time to check out the channel. Really appreciate it!

Stay off 270 between 8am and 10am and 5pm and 7pm…
I find it frustrating that so many of our local highways are very dark in general. We need more lights especially on the off and in ramps.
@@alanzemsky7695270 only sucks if your from there. Go to any other city ever… like Dallas or Chicago. you’ll be glad you have 270.
its not terrible, its not great though either. pretty boring here
It is still St Louis , but it has become Detroit as I predicted it would mirror 8 yrs ago !
