I am being transferred to Baton Rouge. Anyone have any info on the best family neighborhoods/ schools. I have an eight year daughter. I have heard Zachary and the Copper Mill areas are very nice. Thanks for the help.

I'd keep the fact you're an Auburn fan to yourself.

It is a great place but be prepared for the responses here. Let me start with:

You will all die a violent death within hours of entering city limits.

FWIW, look at schools first and then pick a place based off that. Lots of people go private but there are other options.

ETA: Those folks saying to consider your work commute are also correct. Traffic can be brutal.

If public school is what you are looking for in no particular order I'd go with:

Zachary
Central
Ascension
