One last thing, we both work in South Baton Rouge, so I'm note sure about living north of Baton Rouge.

I'm biased to Zachary, but this makes me think you may be looking to Ascension.

Zachary property values have only went up for the past few decades with the exception of some high end housing in Copper Mill having trouble holding its value. But that is due to more of a localized issue inside the subdivision that occurred within the last few years.

Zachary has fixer uppers from 100k up in older areas, which are still good subdivisions. Schools are second to none except the best private schools. I could see Zachary declining 3-4 decades from now, but right now its a good place to be.

Also, if you are the real auto yes clown, I would like to get you to perform at some crawfish boils this year.
