Does anyone find this even remotely surprising?



It's not that bad to me....we pay less taxes than a ton of states, therefore our infrastructure is not as good. I will say this, roads are very demanding to keep up with Louisiana's "foundation" issues compared to a road in Nevada.

New Orleans was built on shaky ground so many years back....no wonder the streets are like roller coasters.

I could care less about schools, I go private. Safety needs to improve, but again, New Orleans is quite a heavy anchor to carry in that category.

You are correct. Nevada does way more upkeep though. The constant construction is aggravating but appreciated.
