Life in St. Ann as a young professional

Longtime lurker here, My family moved here when I was a kid. Crime rate is something to consider -St. Ann sits at 316.4 per 100K. Median household income is $52,059, which feels on the lower side for the area. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. I'd say it's better for families than young singles.

I've been living here for 10 years and I'd say it's improved dramatically in recent years. The safety is decent compared to other places I've lived. Overall Happy to answer more specific questions..

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem solid.

I've been here 6 years and I have mixed feelings honestly. The thing nobody mentions is walkability. It's wild and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the weather is legit. And if you're into golfing, this place is better than expected.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Riverside side vs the Oak Park side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Definitely worth checking out..
