Glasgow Village, population of 5,429, is conveniently located just off Interstate 270 in St. Louis County, which is the most heavily-populated county in the state of Missouri. This census-designated place is the 137th most-populated area in Missouri and covers a whopping nine-tenths of a square mile. It's also close enough to view the mighty Mississippi River. Glasgow Village is within the confines of a community called Bellefontaine Neighbors, directly to the north of St. Louis, Missouri. The area, purchased in 1838, was the property of one Dr. William Carr Lane, a practicing physician who came from Pennsylvania. When the city of St. Louis became incorporated in 1822, Lane was elected mayor in the following year. He maintained a farmstead known as Bienvenue on his plot of land north of the city, passing it to a daughter, Sarah, and her husband William Glasgow upon his death. The property encompassed the area from the river to the Portland Cement Company and to the north, the Chain of Rocks Park. The Glasgow family gifted the land to the city for development. Visitors to the area note that the streets have names of places or clans of Scotland, the naming of which were in accordance to the Glasgow family will and testament. The town experienced a population boom in the 1950s, following World War II. Today, the town retains much of its historic flair and its convenient location ensures that you're never too far from anything. See more

Finding apartments with a pool in Glasgow Village means cooling off from the summer heat, get-togethers, and more exercise. However, there are a few things to consider before signing your next lease.

Ask the property management how long the pool is open each year. Is it seasonal? Does the pool have a heat pump to make it practical to swim beyond summertime? You should also inquire about pool rules, capacity, and if unattended children are permitted. The size of the pool also matters. An oversized apartment complex with a tiny pool could mean crowded summers and frustrations when trying to take a quick dip.

Finding apartments with a pool in Glasgow Village could also drive up your rent, but may be worth the trade-off. Assess the overall amenities of the property. Apartments with a pool may look fantastic on the outside, but inside the kitchen could need an upgrade or the bedrooms could prove smaller than you want.

Once you find the apartment of your dreams, enjoy an afternoon swim and get to know your new neighbors.
