What it’s like

The place. Ellisville is a small city in St. Louis County where most homes are lived in by their owners, and residents tend to be older than in many towns. Household incomes run well above the county's, relatively few people live below the poverty line, and a large share of adults hold a four-year degree. Typical home values are on the higher side, and winters bring real cold, with January highs only a little above freezing, while July afternoons are hot.

Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, in professional and business services, in shops, and in banks, insurance and property. Some of the largest workplaces in Ellisville are Eaton, which makes electrical switchgear, Bethesda Senior Living Communities, and Westview Assisted Living & Memory Care. Many people work from home, and the typical commute is a fairly long one by car.

Things to do. Mid America Adventure, an amusement park, and The Boss, a tourist attraction, both lie a short drive away. For a longer outing, the Missouri Botanical Garden and the Saint Louis Art Museum are both a longer drive away, and so is Gateway Arch National Park.
