re: Best Louisiana City or Town to retire in if you had to live in Louisiana.

A lake house on Caney Lake, Toledo Bend, Black River Lake, Lake Bruin or Lake St. John. Mandeville wouldn't be bad either, but I'm more of a country guy. Somewhere with good fishing & hunting close by. Walking trails and restaurants are what the Mrs wants.

My parents wanted to move to the country when they retire, but dad has heart problems, so they live in the city closer to good hospitals and doctors. I guess your priorities change as you get older maybe.
