I would call it gonzales. Duplessis technically.

Anything north of 621 I call Prairieville, South is Gonzales.


Sure there is some technical boundry.

There is no technically specific for the names of these areas. The names of the areas were handed down from people much older than I. Gonzales and Sorrento are the only legally drawn lines on the east bank. Everything else is just a general area with residents claiming to live in one or the other.

People from Babin used to claim to live in the Doplessis area while my friends right across Airline on Black Bayou claimed Gonzales.
