BALLWIN IS SITUATED ABOUT 20 MILES SOUTHWEST OF DOWNTOWN SAINT LOUIS, BUT THIS TERRIFIC CITY IS MUCH MORE THAN A SUBURB.
SURROUNDED BY PARKS AND GREENSPACE AND OFFERING WOODED, ATTRACTIVE NEIGHBORHOODS, IT’S EASY TO SEE WHY BALLWIN OFTEN APPEARS ON “BEST CITIES” LISTS.
IN ADDITION TO ITS TOP-RATED SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND PROXIMITY TO FIVE UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES, INCLUDING WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY IN ST.
LOUIS AND ST.
LOUIS UNIVERSITY, BALLWIN IS HOME TO A PUBLIC GOLF COURSE, THE POINTE OF BALLWIN COMMONS COMMUNITY CENTER, AND THE NORTH POINTE AQUATIC CENTER.
YOU’LL FIND FIVE PARKS IN BALLWIN, MAKING IT EASY TO FIND AN APARTMENT WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE TO AT LEAST ONE.
THE POINTE IS A 12-ACRE PARK WITH A PAVILION AND A PLAYGROUND, WHILE HOLLOWAY PARK IS NEXT TO THE AQUATIC CENTER AND INCLUDES TENNIS COURTS, PICKLEBALL COURTS, A PLAYGROUND, AND A PAVILION.
