I have been living in Creve Cour for 3 years. The best part about the area is the diversity. So many different races and cultures, and well as unique restaurants. Parkway school district is also outstanding especially for public schooling!

I truly love living in the Creve Coeur area. I have lived out here for over 14 years now. Everyone is beyond friendly despite the occasional few who will turn their noses up at people and businesses like Aldi for example. An individual in our community app said the Aldi and Red Racks (a thrift store) was bring crime into the area which is not true. There has been no major crime out in this area since I have been living. Other than that, everyone has kids basically on every block who play well together, and the elementary school is rather close to our area as well.
Creve Coeur is a nice place to live because it's relatively close to St Louis City and other cool areas, but it has a nice, relaxed suburban feel. There's not a ton to do within the suburb, which doesn't really matter because it's so close to other towns and suburbs, but there are some good restaurants. I enjoy living in Creve Coeur.
