Moving to St. Louis area. Info needed.

[SmokingUPnorth]

That time of year again being transferred to St. Louis Missouri. 4th move in 3 years. I’m looking for anyone familiar with the area on nice areas to live around St. Louis. We are looking into Scott AFB housing on the Illinois side but also looking for nice areas on the economy within a 35 minute drive to St. Louis. We’ll have one of our daughters in High School and younger daughter and son in elementary school. So any info or anything on the area I’m willing to listen to.

Havent lived there in over 30 years so not much help. I would say, have several good options on the IL side, Collinsville, Fairview Heights, Belleville, O'Fallon plus several small towns. On Mo side you are probably going to consider south county Arnold, Kirkwood, Fenton. Parents and sister are still in north county, but not sure I would recommend that area. If looking at more ritzy area, Chesterfield, Frontenac, Des Peres. Town and Country, Ladue.
