Is 70806 considered a "bad" zip code?

I lived on Claycut and I liked it.

Garden District is not "Bad". Close to the ghetto however.

Parts of it are bad, parts are really nice.

Have a friend moving there and he's looking at Garden District, Steele Place and Goodwood. $500-750k.

If he's paying that much, it's a nicer part.

It's on the border with some pretty undesirable spots for sure. Imo, right there in the goodwood area isn't bad though. More native Baton Rouge people might have a better grip on it though.

I live here in 806, its pretty nice. there are a few little rough spots. but they aren't terrible.

I lived off of Government Street near N. Foster and I liked it.

I didn't like the randoms always trying to break into my car.

Look up the address on google maps, street view that shite. take notice on what types of cars are around. Will give you a good idea of the area.

Stereotyping isn't racist.

I have lived off of Park and in Beauregard Town and never had any bad incidents.

The issue is that zipcode is split between some of the best and worst areas of the city. Claycut, Capitol Heights, Old Goodwood, parts of the Garden District, ect are all part of that neighborhood, but so is Mall City.

Don't be intimidated by that zip code. However, you can use it as a negotiating tactic since a lot of realtors consider the area "crime ridden" which is absolutely true in parts and patently false in other areas.

Average household income in that zip is 100-150000.
