Chesterfield. Straddling both the Parkway and Rockwood school districts,
and only about 30 minutes to Lambert field, Chesterfield is a vibrant and
growing city in West County with much new construction. The area's high bluffs,
rolling hills, and lush valley, has provided the perfect area to live, play,
shop and work, yet raise a family. Housing prices range from $110,000 to over
$500,000.
Ballwin. Located on Manchester road about 35
minutes from Lambert Field, Ballwin provides easy access to Interstates 270, 54
and 44. It offers appealing residential subdivisions with a variety of
architectural designs.
Wildwood. Wildwood is the newest city in St. Louis County
incorporated in order to locally control the explosive growth in the area and
preserve the natural beauty of the wooded and hilly terrain. Consequently, lot
sizes are somewhat larger and custom building is the norm. Wildwood is a
beautiful place to live but homes are somewhat more expensive due to the strict
environmental requirements.
Manchester. Manchester, located next to
Ballwin and about 35 minutes from Lambert Field, has evolved since the 1960's,
from a rural farming community to a thriving suburban community. Its mix of old
and new architecture attract many transferees relocationg into the St. Louis
area.
