St. Louis Auto Shipping

St. Louis is actually an independent city located in the U.S. state of Missouri; this means that the city is actually not a part of any county. According to the most recent US Census, the population of the city was over 354,000, making it the second largest city in the state of Missouri and the 53rd largest city in the entire United States. It also is home to the largest urban area in Missouri and the 16th largest in the United States.

Founded in 1763, St. Louis was originally a small trading post; however, because of its location near both the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, the city grew rapidly as trade flourished. Agriculture found a home there as well, and by the turn of the 20th century the two largest economic factors in the city were manufacturing and agriculture; today, however, manufacturing has taken a back seat to service-based industries, and the city is home to several Fortune 1000 companies.

St. Louis is known for its warm summers and cold, bitter winters; in the summer months, typical daily highs don’t reach much higher than the low 90’s, though most of the time the temperatures hover in the mid-to-upper 80’s, with overnight lows dropping down into the low 60’s. During the winter months, however, average daily highs only reach into the low-to-mid 40’s, with overnight lows dropping down into the low 20’s.
