Just 7 miles southwest of Downtown St. Louis, Northampton offers proximity to the city while providing a calmer respite from the hubbub of St. Louis’s center.

Along with its distinctive historic homes, this walkable community features an action-packed park and a vast array of businesses lining the neighborhood's borders, providing residents with shopping and dining options just steps from their front doors. “It feels like you’re in the center of St. Louis with all these little perks of walkability,” says Anna Garcia, local, Realtor and owner of Garcia Properties with 16 years of experience selling in the area. “You’re close to Target and groceries—you’re within seven minutes of everything there.”

Local recreation and parks
Tilles Park is home to soccer fields, racquetball courts, a tennis complex and a roller hockey rink. The grounds come to life with color in the form of redbud blossoms and purple flowers in the spring, while burgundy and goldenrod leaves flutter from the trees in the fall.
Just outside the neighborhood is Tower Grove Park, a vast green space and arboretum. Dating back to 1889, this wooded park is a staple of the community, hosting educational and cultural programs like art exhibitions, concerts, various lecture series, and the Tower Grove Farmers Market.
For indoor recreation, residents can head to the South City YMCA on Arsenal Street.
Relax along the winding path of Tower Grove Park.
In 1932, C.A. Tilles donated his farm to the city of St. Louis to be used as a public park.

Mature trees line the streets
Predominantly residential, Northampton has businesses scattered on the outskirts while homes line the streets at the center. Mature trees line broad, two-way streets with narrow sidewalks on either side, allowing for ease of walkability. The Tudors are some of the most distinct houses, evoking a fairy tale cottage with its stone archways, foundations and chimneys. Homes on Northampton’s northeast side were built in the 1950s and later, with wood bungalows and Cape Cods prominent. Two-bedroom, two-bathroom homes usually sell for $150,000 to $300,000, while three-bedroom, two-bathroom houses – some of the most popular in the area – fetch between $250,000 to $450,000.
Homes in Northampton are snug but the people are neighborly.

Interesting local area, as it gets nicer as you go from east to west. There are poorer, sometimes a bit shady and rundown areas by Kingshighway. Sometimes these shady, rundown areas produce bad characters, but as you move west the housing improves and it gets nicer. But even in some of the, what I have termed "rundown" areas, can some great, diverse foods and businesses be found.

I see cops driving around often enough, they are pretty busy in this city. I have concerns with police action and minorities, and they are easily pinning crimes on the stereotypical criminal, using evidence and facts over instinct
