Centralia Weather


Our Community


   Located about an hour east of St. Louis, Centralia and its surrounding communities are located close to urban centers, yet have all the advantages of small-town life.  Nestled just 9 miles from two major interstates, Centralia is only a few hours from centers like Chicago, Memphis, and Nashville.
   Within a little over an hour Centralians can shop at several major malls, watch Cardinal baseball, Rams football, or Blues hockey, go to the St. Louis zoo, or take a stroll along the grounds of the Gateway Arch.  Yet, they can just as comfortably shop at home and take part in the many recreational, cultural, and athletic events right in Centralia.
   Residents have easy access to the best medical facilities available. St. Mary's and Good Samaratan hospitals are located in Centralia and nearby Mt. Vernon.  And, several of the country's leading medical centers are found in nearby St. Louis.
   Centralia and its adjoining communities, Central City and Wamac, have a combined population of over 24,000 people.  Although the area has experienced the loss of jobs in recent years, the city leaders and business community are optimistic about the future of the area.

   The people of Centralia are particularly proud of their newly constructed high school.  Completed in 2006, this $36 million structure is home to nearly 1100 students and to the nationally famous Orphans and Annies basketball teams.

   Nearby are several quiet little towns, like Irvington, Richview, Walnut Hill, Hoffman, Hoyleton, Sandoval, Odin, and Kell, as well as the larger communities of Salem and Mt. Vernon.
   There is an abundance of good available housing for sale in the Centralia area, giving the buyer an excellent choice of properties to considet.
   Below, Judy has provided links to several excellent websites which feature the many advantages of living in Centralia.
