North Baton Rouge Investment Tax Breaks Attracted Only One Project In 2016

If you don't build there, you're racist.

If you do build there and the success raises property value then you're racist

Y'all cry and whine about north br but what are you doing to fix it?

What are you doing to fix it?

If the community would take responsibility for themselves and put emphasis on stability, work and education, then they could relatively quickly turn north BR around.

By paying taxes and living in south BR.

I grew up in NBR and when I came back to invest in rental properties it was a nightmare.
I gave up and sold my places after having to deal with 21 gun salute every Friday night, crackwhore fights every weekend, and major kids & mothers fighting after the mandatory daycare bus drops off its most distinguished students. Mama rents a place and lets her kids move in that causes problems while she moves in with one of her many babies daddies across town.

Another friend bought an apartment complex off North Foster Dr which he paid close to $1 million for it and then put another $750k in it. He sold out after a few years. He said he has never seen so many people act like animals. He told me a lot of the tenants destroyed the apartments, most do not pay the rent on time, and they laugh at you while destroying your property. He finally sold out to another property mgmt company.

He told me what I always thought that Compton is safer than NBR.

My question to whoever said what are you doing about is "What are you doing about it?"

Who wants to invest thousands of dollars in an area where people act worse that people in third world countries?

Why not invest your money in NBR and see how you feel when the community destroys your business or rental property?

Fun fact. The segment of the black community that lives in the ghetto/projects, as a whole, doesn't want to better themselves.

Not exactly "north Baton Rouge."

This next 4 years is going to be a disaster for Baton Rouge

If you don't have the money then do not criticize people who have made a huge mistake trying to invest in NBR.

This comes from a person who was born in NBR, grew up in NBR, and seen it go from a nice working class community to a war zone.

Until the community cleans up its act, it will be hard for companies or individuals to want to invest in the area.
