Why Do You Stay In The St. Louis Region? #WhyIStay

(Kelsey Proud/St. Louis Public Radio)

What makes you stay in the St. Louis area? 

Is it the Cardinals? Your family? A great set of friends? The architecture? A job you love? A job you need to keep?

Whatever the reason, share it with others.

Take a picture that captures why you stay in the St. Louis area, and share it on Instagram or Twitter. And remember your words are as important as your picture. Use the hashtag #WhyIStay in your caption, and let folks know what your photo represents and where it was taken.

Here's a few people in St. Louis have already submitted:
