  • Airs2k
    "Tower Grove Park is a short walk and great for running, walking, and cycling! Lots of choices for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Dog friendly area with lots of folks walking their dogs in the neighborhood."
  • Laura L.
    "I've lived here for 2 1/2 years. My neighborhood isn't the best for parking or children. Often people park on the residential blocks to walk to nearby restaurants and shops, causing people that live here to walk upward of a block to park on the closest to their home. Spring and summer are the worse. I can't wait to move. People drive recklessly up and down the street, making it dangerous for children to play. I'm over it. Nice to visit not to live. "
  • luketsp
    "I live in this area and there are some GREAT places in the Tower Grove area. You just have to be careful because it comes and goes from block to block. Crime recently has increase. Lots of theft, several gunshots (particularly in the warmer months), and just general domestic dispute type of incidents. Landlords in this area will tell you it is super safe (and sometimes that may be true) but it is so hit and miss you have to be careful no matter where you are. Do the research and look up crime rate and heat maps for the area first."
  • Gregg S.
    "Love the area for its convenience to Tower Grove Park, public transportation and dining options. "
  • Vcstaten
    "I have lived here since 1999 and I've not had any problems with the residents, neighbors, city officials, nor local authorities. Beware of those not abiding the "pooper scooper law". "
