St. Louis is best defined by its myriad of neighborhoods and the diversity of its citizenry.
From the quaint homes and Italian eateries on The Hill to the eclectic atmosphere of The Loop, St. Louis is the gateway to a variety of scene-stealing backdrops. Historic districts along the Missouri and Mississippi riverfronts offer turn-of-the-century charm, while a plethora of suburban areas offer a number of takes on the 21st century American Dream.
Forest Park, the jewel of St. Louis, features many of the region’s most popular cultural institutions amidst its 1,300-plus acres of greenery, playing fields, golf courses and walking/rollerblading/bike paths. Rustic countryside and Missouri’s Wine Country are only minutes away, along with plenty of "off the beaten path" locales perfect for hiking, biking, fishing and even spelunking.
