Residents prize the convenience of living near St. Charles, O’Fallon, St. Peters, and Wentzville, with quick connections to St. Louis via I‑70, I‑64/US‑40, and Route 364. Weekends often revolve around the Missouri River, the miles of Katy Trail State Park, and the expansive forests, lakes, and trails of the Busch and Weldon Spring conservation areas.
