Review of St. Louis, Missouri


The gateway to confusion
Star Rating - 5/18/2009
I never liked living here. The city has the most strangest layout ever. Ive gotten lost so many times and people are so rude here. Overall St louis just seems to be a mixed up city. Its a city where people behave like southerners but yet want to live on the east coast because most of the city has old historic homes arranged like eastern cites.

SL has a double lay-out. One set of streets (Broadway, Jefferson, and Gravois, among others) run parallel to the river. Another (Grand, Kinghighway, Hampton, Chippewa, Lindell, etc.)are a grid. Once you get which streets are which, it's no harder to get around than most Amerivcan cities.
