1) Baton Rouge
2) Houston
3) New Orleans

considering houston is the 4th largest city in the country and new orleans (including jefferson parish) has less than 800,000 people...it is possible that there are more total lsu alumni there. obviously per capita new orleans would be higher, not sure which source you are quoting. but, i'm not convinced that this is correct.

Has anyone said that Houston sucks yet? Some of the nicest folks in Texas, but that's not saying much. Might be an indictment of LSU's education if so many folks have to move there for employment.

I lived in Houston for 12 years, then came back to Louisiana. Houston has more Alumni for one reason only. Back in the 80's it was cheaper (and easier to get into) to go to LSU than TAMU or UT. Kids could get away from home, party like mad and it cost less than commuting from Bryan to College Station. It was stupidly cheap. From 83-88 tuition went from $375ish full time to 960ish!. Out-of-state tuition was double in-state. That was still a bargain in '88.
