Living close to shopping hubs
Fairview Heights is far from the biggest city in the eastern St. Louis metro, but shoppers flock to the Illinois town's retail scene when the holiday season rolls around. Fairview Heights, a city of 16,000 residents 15 miles east of St. Louis, boasts one of the region's largest shopping malls, the 1 million-square-foot St. Clair Square. The mall and other retail centers concentrated on Illinois Street and Lincoln Trail in Fairview Heights draw visitors, but they're a source of constant convenience for the small town's residents.
Quiet neighborhoods close to parks
Pockets of homes radiate from the shopping hub, generally falling into two categories: midcentury neighborhoods full of ranch homes and split-level houses or neo-eclectic homes built in the 2000s. Houses are near lakes, schools, and parks; homebuyers can scoop up the former for anywhere between $130,000 and $175,000. However, the latter features price tags in the $300,000s. Sidewalks accentuate some subdivisions, while others boast up to three-car garages. Fairview Heights homes are in high demand, as there is less than a month of inventory on the market there. "And don't be surprised to see houses, particularly those around the golf courses, fetch over $500,000," Boyer says.
Homes in Fairview Heights', be it ranch or split-level, tells its own unique story.

Climb to a world of wonder with the iconic treehouse of Moody Park in Fairview Heights.
Community center and paved trails lead the way
On sunny days, neighbors had to go to Pleasant Ridge Park or Moddy Park. Locals come for jogs around the 1.5-mile paved loop with views of a geese-filled lake or to let the kids explore the treehouse-style jungle gym. Down the street, pet owners will love Wags Park, and locals looking to climb a rock wall can check out The Rec on the west side of town. It offers members a swimming pool with looped water slides, a gym and youth and adult sports leagues ranging from volleyball to golf. Within 5 miles, residents are centralized to Stonewolf Golf Club, Far Oaks Golf Club, and St. Clair Country Club. O'Fallon Family Sports Park is 5 miles east with a bunch of fields for soccer, baseball and softball. Along the Grand Marais Lake about 7 miles west is Frank Holten Park, where visitors cast their line out for largemouth bass and catfish.
Shopping is found everywhere
Shopping and dining are easy since the town center is packed with retail centers containing Schnucks supermarket, department stores and dozens of restaurants. It'll take a while to exhaust the 140 shopping options at St. Clair Square, including national brands and regional ones like Slackers, for rummaging through CDs and movies. For a hearty meal, locals saddle up and trot down to The Chuck Wagon at this western-themed restaurant to satisfy an appetite as big as the Texas plains. Golden Oak Pancake House is the spot for Saturday breakfast, and Ray's Soul Food & Turkey Legs are dishing out hearty, comfort food.
Experience a fusion of flavors and tradition at Fairview Heights' renowned Chuck Wagon.
