Town & Country, Missouri . . .

. . . is 12 miles west of St. Louis, Missouri, in central St. Louis County and has a population of 11,000.  Town & Country is an affluent suburban community. Originally, woodlands and farmlands, it has slowly transformed into area for those seeking a more rural lifestyle while maintaining a convenient drive from St. Louis.

The primary defining characteristic of the city are single-family residential neighborhoods on generous, well-landscaped lots. Subdivision developments -- cul-de-sacs off major collector routes -- typify the physical development pattern.

The original country charm of larger lots with white fences and grazing horses still can be found, and there are several large tracts of land that remain undeveloped. The result is a community that prides itself on being a quiet, restful and green residential area. There are few commercial developments. Commercial locations tend to be at the periphery of city boundaries or at the intersections of major roads.
