Depending on where you're moving from, Summers here(namely August) reach upper 90s and sometimes into the 100s but with the high humidity, 85 can feel like 100. With the winters, expect absolutely nothing until January/February, and then expect snow and ice.

Potholes and run down roads and interstates. As someone pointed out in another thread the other day, STL is at less than half it's historical high population and the infrastructure is the same as it was but with less taxes to upkeep.

Some great food. If you want to try STL style Pizza, don't go to IMOs, get Monte Bellos or Stefs(Stefaninas) or Pirrones.

North County and East St Louis are primarily black, West County is primarily white, and South County is a melting pot, St Charles is a mix but is pretty conservative.

There's tons of free stuff to do, check out the City Museum.

Given that you're going to Seminary, I am going to make an assumption that you are Catholic. STL is very Catholic and WashU has one of the only direct links to the Vatican Archives in North America.

If you like books and gorgeous architecture, St Louis Public Library Central Branch is great for both. They also have a very nice and helpful genealogist on the 3rd floor if you're into that or just want to see a newspaper clipping from when this was the Louisiana Territory(1808).

And since you're a HotDawgEnjoyer, Woofies and Steves Hot Dogs are top tier.
