re: What keeps you in Baton Rouge?

Lafayette and New Orleans are the only places worth living in. In Lafayette, there are certain parts of town that I'd live in (currently do) that are really fun and nice, but other parts I would never live in. In New Orleans, I'd probably only want to live around Lakeview.

Other than that, Louisiana is pretty shitty. Nothing but corrupt politicians and a borderline illiterate population keeping the state from ever progressing.

If it wasn't for family being nearby, I would have moved to the Pacific Northwest a long time ago.
