	The Stranger - News - Feature - ST. LOUIS METROLINK
		The upshot of all this urban chicanery is that St. Louis serves as a fertile breeding ground for the unattached urban ingénue, who can basically huddle up with buddies and buy an entire city block on the cheap for whatever purpose.
		This means St. Louisans don't have to ask for rides to the airport, freed instead to save their favor chits for more critical pickles--like getting bailed out of jail on public drunk charges (that's what they call "public intoxication" in Mississippi--don't ask me why I know that).
		Meanwhile, the average St. Louis Emo Fittipaldi wannabe is like a gay octopus at the boner buffet--reaping the benefits of a plethora of interstate options to accommodate a population at least twice the city's actual size.

		Since approximately 70% of MetroLink riders have been attracted from automobiles, and assuming typical average occupancy of 1.2 persons per car, that's about 93,000 automobile trips "diverted" from the city's crowded freeways and streets.

		From the University of Missouri—St. Louis (UMSL) in the west to Southwestern Illinois College in the east, the light rail system is attracting new investment that is reviving once faded neighborhoods while adding value to already healthy ones.

		Developer Joe Edwards recognized that MetroLink has the potential to greatly expand the number of customers coming into the Loop, except, as the Urban Land Institute noted, that there was a perception that the couple of blocks between the light rail station and the Loop were unsafe.

		Generally referred to as “the County” as opposed to “the City.” When the city of St. Louis separated from St. Louis co. in 1876 to become independent, it had all the advantages of industry, commerce, and transportation.
		Louis co. was basically rural, with a scattering of small towns such as Kirkwood, Ballwin, and Florissant.
		Because St. Louis could not annex land in the co. beyond its 1876 limits to keep abreast of spreading urbanization, dozens of municipalities were created to form a mosaic of about 90 total.
