Ville Platte is lost. White flight over the last couple of decades sealed its fate. Anyone with the means have moved towards Vidrine or Chicot State Park. Crime rate is ridiculous for a small town. Mamou is facing the same over the next few years.

No jobs. No tax base. Kids move off to college and never return. Those with the means move to Youngsville or Lafayette area. Sad. Evangeline Parish was a great place to grow up and raise a family.

When this happens, the remaining demographics whine and complain that it is race related. Then they are left to rob and kill their own. I don't care what race they are. You act like that, go ahead and kill off each other. We don't need people like that in this world.
