St. Louis is a city that is becoming known for its poverty and rising crime rate. With 90 municipalities and counting, these counties are being led by a corrupted government and a shady police force that is more concerned with the cash in their wallets.

Even though it would be ideal, city and town members should not live in the towns they work for. Due to built up tension, specifically between the police force and the citizens, it would be dangerous to have them live there.
