Badass St. Louis
I like to see St. Louis’ return to being the “Most Dangerous U.S. City” as a badge of honor. As in, don’t mess with us, Detroit. We can whip your decentralized population numbers any day. Or, you think you’re economically depressed, Flint? Check out this loss of industrial jobs, suckas. But seriously, as a city resident I’d like to throw some civic pride out there. I think we St. Lou-sers showed our real stuff with the World Series celebrations--everybody got along didn’t they? Beyond that, the population is up, Metrolink is expanding, fall is a great time to be in the area, and when’s the last time there’s been this much construction downtown? Optimism, my friends, is the word of the day.
