Magnolia Wood/Kenilworth or Oak Hills if you want to stay close to everything in baton rouge.

Magnolia Wood is seeing a resurgence of younger couples buying houses and renovating them because of the size of yards you get.

Also, check out Oak Creek, across the street from Oak Hills. Small neighborhood with a couple of houses for sale in there. Nice area.

Has anyone had any experience with Lakes at Jamestown at the corner of Perkins and Pecue? It's a Carlos Alvarez development. Not sure if that's good or bad.

Has really nice lake/walking trail/swimming pool/fitness center amenities. Lots are on the small side but not tiny.

Biggest negatives I see is the rail line that borders the neighborhood ( about 14 trains per day pass thru there) and the shabby neighborhood next to it.

Biggest positives I see, other than value for the aforementioned amenities, are that the rest of the area is really nice with some nice neighborhoods nearby, and the fact that only 1 house out of 200 in there have gone up for sale in the last 3 months.

Any thoughts on Old Jefferson? Seems to have a few foreclosures and I can't decide what I think of the area.
