NOLA for Life takes a wide-ranging approach, including aggressive prosecution of gang- and drug-related violence, educating teenagers about the consequences of criminal acts and improving relations and trust between residents and police, among other initiatives.

Last year, there was a 20 percent decline in murders in New Orleans from 2012. In the first three months of this year, the number of murders was down by nearly 30 percent.


I mean, good things are happening but c'mon man.

allot of small crimes don't get reported.
I know I have never reported a vehicle break in in NOLA, it just takes too long to get a cop to come out.

Unless you're a black male between the age of 15-25 that is involved with gang activities.

Would a big part of "livable" be not getting shot?

The Conference of Mayors made the announcement in its 82nd annual meeting in Dallas this week. The “city livability” award is intended to highlight mayoral leadership in creating programs that improve quality of life in American cities of every size.


I was wondering what "most livable" meant. It basically doesn't mean much after reading this.

I wish there were more golf courses to play, but other than that, my life as a NOLA resident is pretty fricking awesome.
