The areas right around Lambert are not the best. You could look for a place in Maryland Heights, or Creve Coeur. They are within 15 minutes driving and are to the southwest of the airport. There are some decent apartments/townhomes in University City which is pretty much directly south of the airport about 10 minutes away. I wouldn't want to live within a 5 mile radius of the airport, and anywhere to the north and east of the airport isn't the best place to live either.
