Missouri
There are a number of Lustron houses located in Brentwood. Many of them are original and many of them have been sided, have additions, or have had the windows replaced with vinyl. There are also 3 in St. Charles, Missouri that are all owned by the same owner, and one next to I-70 in Wentzville. There is also one in Velda Village Missouri and two in St. Louis City on McDonald in the Tower Grove South neighborhood, No. 00804.
There are also 5 Lustron homes in the Kansas City area near 85th and Wornall Road. One of them was the display model and residence of the local sales representative. Local legend says that the salesman came home one day and told his wife that he no longer had a job because the company was bankrupt, but they still had their house.
In Kansas City there are at least 10 or more. This includes the Kansas City suburbs. In south Kansas City there are at least 6 in a mile radius. Three together on one street. Two are found north of Kansas City in Cameron.

Lustron House, pre-fabricated, all steel, porcelain-enamel, 2 bedrooms on concrete slab, built in 1948, 4647 3rd Street South, Arlington, Arlington County, VA, demolished 2007.
In Milwaukee, 15 Lustron homes survive, as of 2014, in a cluster around Lincoln Creek north of Capitol Drive and
Cooper Park. These are mostly the Winchester model, but the home at 5520 W. Philip Pl., which has a "unique blue and yellow color scheme, is almost certainly one of the early Esquire “demonstration” homes, which first appeared in 1946."[38]
