One you get out of the teen streets and into the 20s, you'd be correct. But the low number streets are lily colored.

Literally the complete opposite. The area has done a complete 180 over the past 25 years in the best possible way, and that increadible reversal is now starting to spill over into neighboring Downtown East and Old South Baton Rouge. The areas in decline are mostly on the east side of town along Florida Blvd, in the area around St. John apartments, the neighborhoods around Staring, and some of the older flooded subdivisions. The crime isn't really spilling over much from North Baton Rouge into nicer areas with the exception of a few high profile armed robberies in Mid City, but those culprits have been caught.

Baton Rouge was booming big time up until the Sterling stuff, cuts to TOPS, and the flood last summer. The only question is whether the boom will continue despite the problems.

Some posters on this board see half a dozen black people somewhere and assume it's gone to the riff raff. Truth is they are just scared of black people. It's pathetic.
