Livingston has some crazy folks. But are as down to earth as they come.

If farm land is so valuable in NE LA then why do all your farmer friends demand federally funded subsidies to stay afloat.

We left the parish because we lost everything we owned, but our vehicles, pictures, an a weeks worth of clothes. My oldest son went to three different schools in 3 months, so once we were settled I kept him there to have stability.
Sounds like a few good friends of mine from the Chalmette area. All four groups of the close knit family just decided they weren't going to risk it and moved to various areas from Jefferson on up to Livingston Parish. Great people, but they just couldn't stomach putting the work in to move back and not feel safe.

Union, absolutely give you the shirt off their back, help you in any way they can. I know North LA and their Baptist laws may get knocked. Their way of life may be different, but the people there are truly amazing.

Had a family member who moved down that way for a poor mans simple retirement. I used to stay with him and did a lot of fishing and a little hunting down there. Some pretty fcked up people I made friends with as a teenager down in those parts.
Yeah, there are actually some good people in those parts, but there are some crazy arse people there as well. I can tell you some stories, I am sure you can as well, but do you know where 404 & hwy 75 meet? The area is mostly empty land, but there use to be a trailer right along there. It had no electricity, you could see installation hanging out from the exterior, it looked like there were 10-12 people who lived in it.
I think they were forced to move, but before they moved I use to slow down to about 15-20 mph when I came near it. Some of the people who lived there would walk on the hwy like it was a sidewalk, they would have kids in a stroller and just in the middle of the road, slowly walking like it was no big deal. I never understood how people were that stupid. Walking in the middle of a hwy, near a curve, with their kids. There were times when there would be 4 or 5 cars waiting to go around them and they didn't care in the least bit.

St Tammany has the most humble and salt of the earth people.

Don't remember that exact area, but it's been at least 20 years since I've spent much time down that way.
I just remember a lot of junked cars, trailers with sheets for doors in areas, and trailers combined with school busses and shite for housing.
I make fun of them a lot, but there were some good old timers down that way and I learned a great deal from some of those folks.
A Saturday morning trip to the Bayou Bait Shop was a good day back in those simple times.

It's still home. Katrina did a number on us worse than anywhere else that felt her. The lower end was basically obliterated. It's slowly starting to come back after more than a decade later, but now Chevron is selling of it's shelf operations and focusing on deep water operations out of Fourchon so that's a big loss.
You know what's amazing? The people down there are so strong and down to earth people. Katrina hit there with her strongest winds to touch land and a 20+ feet storm surge and maybe a half a dozen people died with almost total destruction. I know population density is nowhere near the same as in Orleans, but I know a bunch of people who stayed down there and survived holding on to power lines or anything else they could grab. If that same thing happened in the city, there would have been 10k minimum dead.
