Hello fellow AR15 members...  I have a friend of mine that is relocating from small town WI to St. Louis.  She is in a family of 3 with an elementary school age child.  Do you folks have any suggestions on where she might want to live in relation to commute, schools, and general safety?  The company she will be working for is Weissman Dance.  I understand they are located in the SW part of St. Louis.  She is looking to rent a place to live at least for the first year or two.  Her husband is not much of a man so any suggestions on safer places to live and with decent school systems would be great.

Thanks and if you have any suggestions I really would appreciate it... either contact me directly or feel free to post here.

Thanks!

Looks like they are at 6750 Manchester Avenue Saint Louis Missour 63139, a S. City type area....

What kinda income bracket will they be in????



Some areas aren't that bad to live (depending on who you ask) but the Schools suck badly.... But, depending on income, there is always the option of private school...





They may want to look at the S. County area...  It can be much better than most of the City areas...

I would suggest the Manchester /  Ballwin area or Fenton.  Look for the Parkway or Rockwood districts for schools.

Hey thanks...

The income level probably is going to be about 80K.  Any additional information I will be happy to pass along...

Just tell her to stay outside of highway 270 and you should be "ok."  Anything inside there and you rol the dice neighborhood to neighborhood.

Good advice, especially if they prefer suburban or rural. If the4y come here and like a certain general area, you could post it up and get opinions, but outside 270 to the South or West is good.

if they have school age children, and plan to take advantage of the public schools, avoid St Louis City, like the plague.
