Things Wentzville needs to improve
Been meaning to ask this. I grew up here but left for a while. Household incomes average around $111,409 in Wentzville. Average temperature is around 54--F, so expect cold winters. Rent is about $1,264/month for a decent place. Crime rate is something to consider -Wentzville sits at 205.2 per 100K. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The food scene here is surprisingly good.
Pros:
- Friendly people
- Walkable downtown
- Plenty of shopping options
Cons:
- Sprawl everywhere
- Limited dining options
- High property taxes
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Far from major airports
