I'm going to be writing to conflicting views on growing up in St.louis. When you live somewhere the majority of your life it is very easy to see the negative in that place and the positive in somewhere else. The grass is always greener on the other side. Today I'm going to have an argument why St.louis is bad and why it is great.
The main question I get when I say I grew up in St.louis Missouri is, "did you grow up on a
farm?" Contrary to popular belief I grew up in the suburbs of St.louis near the city. In St.louis there is no beach and nothing really to do outdoors. The weather in St.louis is always terrible never perfect like florida. Everything enjoyable costs money in St.louis. Therefor it is not the best place to live.
On the other hand St.louis is a safe place to raise kids unless you live in the inner city. Growing up all your friends are close and some ones parents are always out of town. Once you turn 18 the night life in St.louis is endless there are tons of clubs and bars to go to most of the time if you're a girl you get in free. So St.louis has it's benafits also.
