Lafayette and Lake Charles are doing okay but they'll never be great due to the constant threat of hurricanes/flooding.

It will be interesting to see how a "Republican" Governor runs this state, especially one that shouldn't have any national ambitions... that could make a big difference for job creation, hopefully they can make some tax, infrastructure, and liability changes to help get the state rolling, plus having Scalise should help with getting federal $$ headed our way.
Nola is basically screwed until Teedy & Jason Williams is gone, but I could easily see a place like BR or Lafayette landing some big job numbers.

Alexandria. Definitely Alexandria.

Until people in Louisiana wise up and stop voting in corrupt POS politicians, nothing in that state is going to get better.

Bossier aint so bad. I'm ready to move but there are definitely quite a few worse places in this state.

No because we keep electing idiots. They show you how dumb they are, then we elect them again.

Lake Charles' mayor Nic Hunter has a fantastic vision for the city. The LC REBOUND program would really spring LC ahead.

The Acadiana area has a lot of promise.
North Lafayette/Carencro has gotten some major business developments between the Amazon fulfillment center and the FedEx center.
Lafayette is land locked by other smaller cities, but those small cities have a lot of real estate with Interstate access for economic development and they're all (mostly) part of Lafayette Parish which benefits the city and every other small town in the area.

I’m biased but think Lafayette/Youngsville is not a bad place in Louisiana to raise a family.

Brusly is up and coming. Its going to be the Austin of Louisiana.

I know y'all don't want to hear this, but if any city in Louisiana can do it, it's New Orleans. No other city in Louisiana has the amenities that most young grads want or can attract out of state hires. If crime got under control and a more business minded local government were elected, you'd see economic results pretty quickly. Not saying those things will happen, just that the odds are greater in New Orleans than anywhere else in Louisiana.

Only if Texas becomes an independent country and annexes Louisiana as a client-state.

Instead of most promising, should say least bleak and that would be Lafayette. Shreveport and New Orleans have massive potential, but the people there have decided to just accept crime-ridden shithole status. For their size, Alexandria and Monroe are two of the most dangerous places in the country. They've quietly earned this dubious honor, but neither have the advantages of the other population centers of the state.

The odds are against it and it is unfortunate.
A few short years my wife ( no pics) and I will retire and we will escape to a secret location. I don't want anyone from louisiana to follow us.

Very few. Everywhere, big city or suburb, is run by Good Ol' Boy networks... and our moronic citizens continue to vote them in. Not surprising from a state that worships people like Huey Long and Edwin Edwards.
Lafayette is not what it was pre-Katrina, and it is getting worse. There are many reasons why people are fleeing to Youngsville, Carencro, etc.
N.O. is done.
Baton Rouge is getting there. Even places like Zachary and Central are seeing flight across the Amite or into West Fel.
North Shore is overrun and can't keep up the infrastructure.
Anything North of Opelousas is not worth mentioning.

On page 3, and no mention of Bogalusa.

Tangipahoa has been a bit of a surprise as of late, with Medline investing $72M with their new facility and Niagara Bottling Investing $162M with their new facility. Quite impressive for the Hammond area.
St. Tammany has potential, but poor vision and leadership. Sucette Harbor is a prime example of 'not in my backyard'. Stirling Properties will strip mall the place to death.
