THE FEEL
In Arnold, convenience and accessibility are big draws for those looking to get away from city chaos. You'll find all the amenities you'd expect from St. Louis real estate, like easy shopping and commutes, but Arnold still keeps that small-town vibe alive with community cookouts and school events. Most homes rock the ranch style and are tucked into cozy subdivisions. And since Arnold is still a young city, the majority of houses are under 40 years old.

While people have inhabited this land for centuries, Arnold itself officially became a town in 1972.
