I put the star because there is one or two places like on the river in Madisonville or on the Lakefront in Mandeville. The nice neighborhoods like TCC and Southdown don't come close, just compare the cost of a lot.
I don't think you're current on your values. TCC has a lot of extremely expensive homes.

Southdown? is old as shite.

Sanctuary?

Riverfront homes etc..

Not splitting hairs or trying to compare ns vs ss just saying your statement is false. (although St Charles Ave Im sure if more expensive than anywhere)

NS and SS are two different worlds. I think comparing them or arguing which is better is stupid.

I'm very familiar with TCC, my sister and her family bought there about a year ago and my parents own a lot in the new section and just closed on a house on the course this month. The new lots on the course can be had for $160,000. You can't even get a postage stamp lot in Lakeview, Warehouse, Garden District, Uptown for that.

I was very close to buying a big lot in Natchez Trace about 2 years ago and it was only $130,000. I know they are still close to that.

Yes I meant Sanctuary, not Southdown. Sanctuary you can easily get a lot for $160,000-$175,000 and it is HUGE compared to the Southshore lots.

I love the Northshore and will probably move back there one day. One thing I like about it is how much you save living over there. I am not knocking it, its just the truth.

1ac 4000sq ft house on the Northshore = $400k
1ac 4000sq ft house in New Orleans = $3 million
40ac 10,000sq ft house on the Northshore = $3 million
10,000sq ft house (small lot) in New Orleans = $5-10 million


Comparable houses in New Orleans are ridiculously more expensive than on the Northshore. I know plenty of people with some of the nicest houses on the Northshore, and they are just as nice, if not more, than ones in New Orleans. Most people don't usually see or know where they are. New Orleans has history and convenience.

If I had a family and had to live in New Orleans, I'd probably stick to NOCC on airline. I am single right now, so I don't mind living down here. When I grow up, I'm definitely moving to the Northshore
