Glen Carbon is a lively suburb just 14 miles outside of St. Louis with a population right around 14,000. It is part of the top-rated Edwardsville School District, making it a favorite for families. Southern Illinois University Edwardsville is just around the corner
which provides higher education opportunities close to home. Glen Carbon offers tons of outdoor options-numerous parks, bike trails, walking paths, and recreational facilities. Places like Miner Park and Ray M. Schon Park provide spaces for picnics, sports, and community events. It’s the kind of place where you can go from classrooms to kayaks in a matter of minutes. Add in affordable homes, quiet neighborhoods, as well as an easy commute, and you’ve got a town that feels like the best of both worlds.
Glen Carbon also knows how to honor its roots. Wander through local landmarks like the 1910 firehouse, the historic Yanda Log Cabin, and that picturesque, covered bridge that’s straight out of a postcard. Whether you’re here for the trails, the schools, the history, or the small-town charm, Glen Carbon offers a warm welcome and a lifestyle that’s hard to beat.
