St. Louis is one of the most famous cities in the Midwestern United States, and is an important cultural and economic center of the region.
Founded by French fur merchant settlers in February 1764, the city takes its name from King Louis IX “The Saint” of France.
St. Louis is located on the right, western bank of the great Mississippi, somewhat south of its confluence with its largest tributary, the Missouri River. The city is located in the interior of the continent, but both hot and moisture-saturated air masses from the Gulf of Mexico and cold Arctic air reach here. In general, the region has a warm and humid continental climate (close to subtropical) with pronounced seasons.
St. Louis has a rather cold winter, usually with little rainfall, during which, however, occasional severe blizzards and blizzards occur.

St. Louis is near the infamous ” Tornado Alley ” and is also at risk of flooding from the Mississippi floods.

At the end of the 19th century, the “City of the Mounds” became one of the largest (575,000 people in 1900) cities in the USA, ranking fourth among them in terms of the number of residents (which is why one of its nicknames is “The Fourth City”). The maximum population was reached by 1950 (more than 850,000 people), and in the following decades, due to changes in the structure of the economy and in connection with the tendency of the middle class to move to the suburbs, the population of the city began to decrease, and this trend continues today.
