Together, let’s embark on a journey through the charming wonders that make St. Louis an exceptional place to work and call home.
St. Louis is home to diverse cultures, offering a place for everyone. Each corner tells a unique story, and every step unravels a chapter of the city's rich, cultural tapestry. The iconic Gateway Arch towers above the Mississippi River and stands as a symbol of exploration and opportunity, enticing visitors to delve deeper into the city's hidden gems. And, if you look close enough, you’ll see Nestlé Purina’s tower standing proudly in the city’s skyline.
Our abundance of neighborhoods, each with its own distinct personality, attract those who are seeking an ideal place to settle down. These communities are beacons of exceptional public-school districts for your growing family, nurturing young minds and shaping bright futures. These neighborhoods, and others alike, offer lush tree-lined streets perfect for walks, timeless charm, and a sense of a tight-knit community.
St. Louis knows how to captivate and entertain, especially when it comes to sports. You’ll hear the echoes of excitement radiating from the stands of Busch Stadium where our beloved Cardinals baseball team calls home, or rally chants pouring out of our newest stadium, Citypark, which is home to our first major league soccer team, St. Louis CITY Soccer Club. We highly encourage you to join the sea of red and cheer alongside fans as the crack of the bat or kickoff of the ball sends the crowd into a frenzy. Fun fact, Purina is so close to Busch Stadium and Citypark, you’ll have the perk of free parking on game nights.
For those seeking a brush with nature, Forest Park offers serenity with its sprawling green spaces and inviting jogging paths. Walking through the park, you’ll see echoes of history at the magnificent Art Museum, or maybe instead you’ll feel the thump of the music at the St. Louis Muny, the country's oldest and largest outdoor musical theatre. If you look down the hill, you’ll be right in front of the award-winning St. Louis Zoo. Upon entering, you’ll explore the wonders of exotic animals and vibrant exhibits that spark curiosity and joy in the hearts of all visitors. The best part? It’s free for all ages. St. Louis prides itself on providing free attractions, such as the Zoo, Art Museum, and our History Museum. Fair warning, Forest Park’s 1,326 acres of entertainment could lead to an increase in thirst and appetite, but we’ve got you and your taste buds covered.
St. Louis is an extraordinary culinary adventure filled with aromas from renowned BBQ joints in Soulard, to international cuisine from across the globe that you would encounter in the Delmar Loop neighborhood.
