Centreville carries deep local roots while looking ahead, now forming a key part of the unified city of Cahokia Heights in St. Clair County. Commuters appreciate quick access to East St. Louis and St. Louis, with convenient connections via nearby MetroLink stations operated by MetroLink and major corridors that speed daily travel across the region.
Weekends often start at the expansive Frank Holten State Recreation Area, where residents cast a line on calm lakes, walk shaded trails, or play a round at the historic Grand Marais course. History lovers find a world-class window into the past at the Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site, a UNESCO World Heritage Site just up the road. For sports and entertainment, minor-league baseball and concerts in nearby Sauget and cultural outings in Belleville add easy options close to home.
Families benefit from community-centered schools in Cahokia Unit School District 187, while local healthcare is anchored by Touchette Regional Hospital. City services are coordinated through the city government, which continues neighborhood investment and infrastructure upgrades, and a growing small-business scene keeps daily needs within minutes of most blocks.
Whether you’re seeking an affordable first home, more space for a growing household, or a strategic location near metro employers, Centreville offers practical value and everyday convenience.
