Ok. Im not disputing that. Just saying my experiences in the two places were like night and day


That's probably due to the entitled population in New Orleans to put it nicely.

It was not that way everywhere around the city. They just seemed to be the big news story and garnered the attention of the media.

The way things went down in NOLA were a cluster-frick of epic proportions. However, the time between Katrina and Rita isn't a fair comparison because it was only a few weeks. People couldn't even get back into some areas until October. Some couldn't back until January. The city was a military zone for much of September and you had the worst of the worst still running around the city. It's really tough to compare recovery efforts between two very vastly different destruction zones with even more drastic population differences.
