They raised taxes to really improve it like 8 years ago and haven't done shite yet. They have had so many companies bid to develop it only to back out later that it's laughable at this point. Just pure incompetence by the city council and meanwhile they took like $180 million or something crazy from the citizens.
yeah notice i didn't bring up the public bullshite improvements (other than the bus depot)

My buddy moved there from Moss Bluff to take over a State Farm. His wife's family is from DeRidder so I have no idea why they don't stay there.

I mean they got some really nice streets with pavers in them now though.
It just pales in comparison to what Roach promised when they passed the tax.

Yeah, most the Fort Polk upper brass live in Deridder too. If you are settling down somewhere, Leesville has to be one of the worst choices within a hundred mile radius.

While this area may not be my ideal place to live, the people have been very nice and the school my son has been attending has been very good.
I will only be here a few more months and hope myself, you, Jake and chubbs can catch a drink at the nugget or some shite.

When I was selling Real Estate there 10 years ago that's how it always was. Anyone with a decent housing allowance stayed in Rosepine or DeRidder.

Been here 2 years already. My company will be here till '19 or so.
Been working 6/7 days a week and burnt out. Gonna hunt and fish and build my house this summer. Probably take a year off and do some consulting stuff from home.

There's good people in Leesville and the new Mayor is a good guy but there's a lot of trash too.
Posted on 2/14/15 at 6:28 pm to Bushmaster
I had no idea you had already been here that long

I know this won't come as a surprise, but I can actually arrange that.

I have been there since groundbreaking/soil stabilization at the site. Mind blowing looking at how much we have built so far in just 2 years.

You brought up the term elitist. Not me. I was half kidding about the redneck joke, but go to Pappy's on a Friday night and you will see what I mean.
LC doesn't have a "ton of bars" in general. I've told you what I consider "good bars." And I didn't say "clubs", so don't even try naming a place like Cowboys.
