Moving to Creve Coeur can be tricky if you are looking to rent -- seriously tricky. Most of the homes here are lived in by their owners, so finding apartments for rent seems to be a game that must be played out over time. Be prepared to wait until the right rental property comes along. You also may want to consider changing your exact wants as you wait. With that said, it is not impossible to find rental homes in Creve Coeur, just harder than in a larger city. Contacting a local real estate agent may help you have an easier time finding rental condos and furnished apartments. You'll also find mobile homes and other options available, too. What you likely won't find are huge apartment complexes, since Creve Coeur is such a small town. Unless you prefer living in a large complex, this won't be too much of an issue. In fact, you'll have a better chance of having a larger yard and more privacy than you would in a large complex, which means you can invite all of your new friends over for backyard barbecues.
