That's a tough 20 minutes. You must have never lived in any large city before.



True, lived outside NO and OKC, but not in my adult working life.

That said I'd imagine the commute in the morning for many gets up to 30 min or more, so that's more than an hour of every day spent just going to work. I'll pass on that.

West Monroe towards Calhoun is growing. Calhoun is mainly country but it's not much of a drive towards West Monroe or Ruston. People talkin shite about WM don't know what they talking about. My dad sells land and most of the people he sells land too are the people that are trying to escape Monroe.

Like most cities, it's all relative to how close you are to the interstate. I drove from Calhoun to my old office off Lamy Lane in Monroe for about two years. It was a 20 minute drive max during the morning or evening. However, I'm only about 5 minutes from I-20. You can live in some areas of north Monroe and it could take you 15-20 minutes of dealing with start and stop traffic to get downtown.

Are there rednecks in West Monroe? Absolutely.
Is there a worse problem than rednecks in Monroe? You better believe it.

Just stay out of Wal Mart in either city and you'll be fine.
