Local notes for St. Charles
St. Charles is two markets in one: the historic core near Main Street, with smaller older lots and tight access, and the sprawling newer subdivisions to the south and west with standard suburban yards. Soil and drainage vary accordingly — river-adjacent properties sit flatter and wetter, while upland subdivisions dig more predictably. The first question on any St. Charles project is which of the two markets the address belongs to, because access and excavation assumptions flip between them.
