St. Charles, Missouri

St. Charles, Missouri is the county seat for St. Charles County, Missouri and is located just thirty miles northwest of St. Louis, Missouri. St. Charles, Mo is rich in history and began as a place for people to stop and replenish supplies before traveling westward. Daniel Boone built his home in St. Charles in the mid-eighteenth century and by the end of the 1800's St. Charles was home to three railroads. Because of the ease of accessibility by river or rail, St. Charles has been able to maintain a steady growth in population.
The current population of St. Charles, Missouri is 65,794. Almost half of the population travels to work daily and many of those commuters travel less than twenty minutes each way. It is unsurprising, based on these statistics that most St. Charles car accidents (63%) happen on city streets. Many accidents that happen on city streets usually end up with property damage only and little to no personal injuries. It is important to remember that if you are involved in an accident, even though it may be considered a fender-bender, long-lasting injuries might still be sustained. For this reason it would be prudent to speak with an experienced personal injury attorney anytime you are involved in a motor vehicle accident.
