To be fair to St. Louis (and I hate St. Louis), its "city line" was drawn not really that far west of its downtown area - the planners at the time couldn't imagine it growing beyond it. It's like Philly with the Northeast, Chestnut Hill and University City on the other side of the line. Its Camden is also on the other side of the river though. I do miss toasted ravioli and a word for white trash that people actually get angry about.
