St. Peters is underrated, change my mind
I'm a nurse at the local hospital and The unemployment rate is 1.6%, which is pretty low. Household incomes average around $89,827 in St. Peters. Median household income is $89,827, which feels pretty solid for the area. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly.
Pros:
- Growing food scene
- Low crime in most areas
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Not very walkable
- Limited dining options
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Boring for young people
- Homelessness issues downtown
