I think that a lot of people living New Orleans before the storm lived there because they didn't see a way out. Now, everyone who lives there does so because they want to. The whole city is there because they believe in it. It's a whole different attitude.

To a degree. I live here by choice, in 2004 I would have said I live here b/c it's where I was born. Funny just about everyone I meet now my age is from somewhere else. Its rare I can ask people where they went to HS these days.

I like this and I can get behind this statement. New Orleans isn't for everyone, but you cannot deny that it is a city that is experiencing exponential growth and positive strides.
New Orleans is seeing more and more young and educated people who are flocking to the city to work or start their new careers. People are finally enthusiastic about the city and its future. It's an exciting time to live in the city, that's for sure.
