I like to drive HWY 71 south a couple of times per year from CenLa to krotz springs, and it is the same way. Lecompte, Cheneyville, Lebeau all appear to be all but gone. Only Bunkie appears to be thriving.
I still enjoy driving that route, though.

Not thriving, but barely hanging on. Population down to approximately 3,200, but thanks to Greg Kojis & Vaughn Automotive there are still a few good jobs & tax generators…

Relatively maybe so. By and large, rural southern America is a corpse of its former self.
Greenville MS, Donaldsonville, Port Allen, all those old farm cities are just shells. Still some money lurking around all of them but by and large they're totally dead.

I rather drive that route between BR & Alexandria than 190 to 49. Almost just as fast, shorter distance, and definitely better gas mileage. Just don't go crazy in that St. Landry portion.
