Jennings borders St. Louis
Jennings is a St. Louis suburb that offers much of what an average homebuyer might shop for. “It’s close to Interstate 70. There’s lots of shopping. It’s easily commutable. It has lots of bus lines and it’s a pretty diverse area,” says Rebecca Harrington, a Realtor with RE/MAX Results and a longtime resident of North St. Louis County where Jennings is located. Nevertheless, with parts of Jennings bearing more resemblance to the City of St. Louis, its urban neighbor next door, it’s easy to understand how non-Jennings residents could view here much differently. “Not everybody keeps their houses up the same. There are smaller homes. Parts of Jennings border the city and might be a little more urban,” Harrington says, adding, “It’s a nice place to be, people are great.”
Ranch style homes with large front yards line the quieter streets of Jennings.

Whatever you want, you could probably find it in Jennings,” Harrington says.
