To an extent, but I think there is a limit. New Orleans had a boom around 2010 and I think it may still be going, but to me, it still isn't like New Orleans prekatrina and probably never will be.

I strongly disagree. New Orleans is way better than it was pre-Katrina. Much nicer all around.

Why do you say that? What was better pre-Katrina?

That is a good thing, imo.

Just drive around the projects, they are much nicer. And the housing market is booming. Streets are better, tourism is fine. Nola is better than it was 15 years ago by far.

This may be a good thing, though.
