We moved to Highland a little over a month ago and absolutely LOVE IT!
It is a great, laid back town with very friendly people and community that had a lot to offer. It is just minutes away from I-70 and the commute to St. Louis isnt bad at all. I visit friends a lot in St. Louis and it is well worth the extra 15 minutes I spend in the car to live in Highland rather than Belleville.
here are some links for more info if you are interested in the town -
