The Mail room's are no big deal.....I meet nice people there always. Many things not mentioned are in fact,.... pretty cool. There's a Triathlon each year, 4th of July parade that's a blast. The pool is huge with a lazy river as well as an "Adult" pool called the Blue Agave. If you're a Foodie, you'll love the BBQ, Mexican, and great pizza at Pauley's , Wings and cold beer being served at Padavan's,...it's New Town's Sports bar. The CONCERTS! Dr. Zhivegas played in the Amphitheater, some guess there was 10 thousand people there,...it was a blast. Golf cars cruise around almost as if it's the primary source of transportation,...and there's some pretty sweet examples,...it's like a car show for golf carts everywhere. Police and Private Security keep the knuckleheads out as you walk around the town with your dogs,....and ice cream from a cute little shop next to the BBQ spot. There's live music, beach volleyball, fishing, paddle boarding and swimming in the abundant lakes and canals. The Coffee bar is better than Starbucks and Sweet Things Bakery can make anything! They serve all sorts of treats right in the middle of town. Need a Dog Groomer, Dentist, Insurance, a Veterinarian, or a make over? All right here. The Grocery store is terrific, they even have a Deli with awesome tasting, very different sandwiches. Boars Head meats, crazy stuff no body would normally have, they have it, almost like a mini Straubs. The HOA is cool,...they keep NT looking like the Developer intended,...for decades to come. Once the lots are sold,...the prices should skyrocket. I think a great Investment in Real Estate just because of supply and demand principles.

I live in Illinois. I’ve heard of new town and yesterday was the first time I have ever been in the neighborhood. It was weird. First, thought was this looks like a movie set. Second thought the house style looks out of place in the Midwest. Third thought after watching this video- that kind of money for postage stamp size yard and being on top of my neighbors is a big fat no for me. Last thought, walkable I guess but walkable means more than a restaurant, trinket shop. It means accessing essential services like schools, libraries, your job. So walkable is a bit of stretch.

Orchard Farms School District is one of the finest in the state. My grandson, and some of his classmates, won a STATE level competition here last month, and were entered into an INTERNATIONAL Competition a couple of weeks ago. Good stuff.

Lived in St. Charles when I was a kid, the tight nit community was great. Loved going to the Bridge for coffee after school and heading to the amphitheater for activities. I will say I know my Dad always complained about the terrible HOA rules and a lot of the older houses looking the same. Glad it’s still doing well, I have very fond memories of that place!

I get Amazon boxes delivered to my door 1-3x's each week. They have never taken anything to the mail room.

Is living in a flood plain surrounded by levees that trap in water during extreme rain events good for anybody????

I lived in New Town for awhile. It wasn't for me so I sold my house and didn't look back. The houses are not well made, way to close together and the neighborhood was looking rundown by the time I left. The mailbox thing is a pain in the ass. I obviously bought on a whim and didn't think it through.

Thanks for this video. Great as usual. We find New Town beautiful and may consider it someday. However, the "extra tight knit community" vibe and strong HOA may take give us pause.....to be continued..lol.

Thank you for the content, are there any theme parks around St Louise area ?

OK. The mailboxes. This is a HUGE issue here in New Town. Only so many oversize mailboxes for shipping. Post office blames New Town, New Town blames the Post office. IF you use the USPS, you're screwed. Thirty boxes for three thousand homes.

Wish they could of kap building out & turn the place into a new city with a skyline like Clayton

If you're 65, then your property taxes will NEVER go up. This is something new that St. Charles County has initiated. This is huge for seniors (like my wife and I), on relatively fixed incomes.

newtown does get floding i live in st charles but not in newtown my dentist is on elm st right before newtown he got flooding last spring the homes are so close together practically no yards would never live there especially with that hoa which is very strict very cookie cutter looking place

Wish could of kap building out if the area wasn't a flood zone

It's nice but I would still prefer to live in the old Saint Charles area.

Several things are not accurate in this video.

Ive heard strange things about the neighborhood...

Charleston has NOTHING to do with New Town. They are completely separate communities.
