Olivette began as a small farming community that was settled along an old Indian trail now known as Bonhomme Road. The town was incorporated in 1930. Due to its convenient midpoint location between two major waterways, it was used as a wagon stop for travelers going between the Port of St. Louis on the Mississippi River and Howell's Landing on the Missouri. Olivette currently encompasses close to three square miles of land and is home to approximately 8000 residents. The community is primarily residential.
