What it’s like
The place. Bel-Nor is a small village in St. Louis County, and nearly everyone who lives there owns their home. Household incomes run well above the county's, and fewer residents live below the poverty line than you might expect for the area. A good share of adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, while July brings hot summer days, and the year is fairly wet.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in shops, in banks, insurance and property, and in professional and business services. A fair number work from home, and the typical commute is a moderate one. Across St. Louis County, some of the largest workplaces are Washington University in St Louis, The Boeing Company and Mercy Hospital - St. Louis.
Things to do. A short drive away, Forest Park is a large city garden and park, and the Saint Louis Zoo and the Saint Louis Art Museum are close by as well. The Missouri Botanical Garden, also a short drive off, is a botanical garden. For a longer outing, Cahokia is an archaeological site a longer drive away.
