Normand better step his game up. Crime in unincorporated JP is rising and people are taking notice. Gentrification in New Orleans has pushed the thugs into Metairie. I'm afraid to see what Metairie will look like ten years from now.

That's been happening ever since Katrina... there's section 8 housing in areas in Metairie that were nice quiet neighborhoods... My parents had one pop up 3 houses down from them....

Everyone on the block has a clean front yard with the grass cut.. The sec 8 house has junk cars in the driveway and the grass in never cut... Can spot it soon as you turn on the street..

There should be a law passed, if a home owner wants to collect section 8 funds on a property, he should send letters to all the surrounding home owners to get an ok with it.. Just like a variance on an addition or a rebuild..
