Ferguson is a small town outside of Saint Louis located across Interstate 170 from Saint Louis International Airport. Downtown Saint Louis is about 12 miles southeast of Ferguson, so residents can easily travel into this major city for work or leisure. Residents enjoy easy access to Norwood Hills Country Club and Koeneman Park as well, but Ferguson has plenty to offer on its own. January-Wabash Park and Jeske Park are popular green spaces in the city, and residents have the choice of several shopping centers filled with retailers and restaurants. Ferguson is home to St. Louis Community College-Florissant Valley and great public schools. Renters appreciate the city's abundant affordable apartments available for rent.
