Relocating for work

Moving to St. Louis for Edward Jones

Edward Jones has two major St. Louis home-office campuses in Des Peres and Maryland Heights. Those locations create different housing maps, so confirm which campus actually drives your week before choosing where to live.

Work location

Start with the exact worksite.

Des Peres campus

Edward Jones lists its headquarters at 12555 Manchester Road in Des Peres, with a major 270 Building nearby.

Maryland Heights campus

Edward Jones also operates a North Campus in Maryland Heights.

Large local footprint

Edward Jones says more than 8,000 home-office associates work across its Des Peres and Maryland Heights campuses.

Where to start

Compare the commute with the rest of your week.

1

If Des Peres is your main campus

Des Peres, Kirkwood, Town and Country, Frontenac, Ballwin, Manchester and Webster Groves all make more sense than treating the entire metro equally. The main trade is how close you want to stay to Manchester Road / I-270 versus how central you want the rest of your week to be.

2

If Maryland Heights is your main campus

Maryland Heights, Creve Coeur, Bridgeton, Olivette and St. Charles become more logical. The airport and Missouri River crossings matter more, while South County becomes much less convenient.

3

If you move between campuses

A midpoint matters more than absolute proximity. Creve Coeur, Olivette, Frontenac and parts of central West County can protect you from choosing the wrong extreme.

Three options

Edward Jones is a two-campus decision before it is a housing decision.

Des Peres is my main campus

Des Peres, Kirkwood, Town and Country, Frontenac, Manchester and Ballwin become the most natural starting points.

Maryland Heights is my main campus

Maryland Heights, Creve Coeur, Bridgeton, Olivette and St. Charles become more logical.

I may move between both campuses

Creve Coeur, Olivette, Frontenac and central West County can protect you from overcommitting to either end of the company footprint.

Confirm the campus before buying

Edward Jones has enough St. Louis home-office scale that “Edward Jones job” is not specific enough. If your assignment is fixed to one campus, buying can be straightforward. If your team regularly uses both Des Peres and Maryland Heights, renting first or choosing a midpoint can reduce future friction.

If two people are commuting

Edward Jones can pair well with a second job in Clayton or West County if you stay central. If the other job is Downtown or St. Charles County, solving both routes matters more than minimizing one.

Scouting trip

A one-day plan.

1

Drive to the exact campus at your normal arrival time.

2

Compare one close-to-campus option with one midpoint option.

3

If both campuses matter, drive the cross-campus trip before choosing a home.

4

Test Manchester Road / I-270 access from any Des Peres-area neighborhood you seriously consider.

Before you commit

Check these four things.

Confirm Des Peres vs. Maryland Heights campus.

Ask how often your role requires the other campus.

Test the commute at real work hours.

Map the second worker’s job before narrowing the housing search.

Places to compare

Six places to start.

They are deliberately different so you can compare commute, housing type, walkability and space.

Three things to watch.

1

Assuming the Edward Jones job is tied to the Des Peres campus without confirming.

2

Optimizing for one campus if your role regularly touches both.

3

Ignoring how Manchester Road and I-270 traffic affect the last few miles of the commute.
