quote:This isn't a pissing match between Lake Charles and Lafayette. Two different cities, with two different visions of their future.
But but but Lafayette is suppose to be the talk of the town.
Lafayette's downturn has thankfully been helped by a lot of out-of-work oilfield baws commuting to Lake Charles for construction jobs. Good for them!
If the oil industry can turn around for Lafayette, then Lake Charles will have to recruit outside labor to the state to fill the job demand. Good for Lake Charles!
There's always been a see-saw between Lake Charles and Lafayette because one city is upstream, the other downstream. But, that could change, and a balance between the two would be great, and Louisiana could be stronger for it.

Lake Charles has much better infrastructure fit to handle growth compared to other cities in the state. I love crossing over into Calcasieu and seeing the lanes go from 4 to 6. I have no clue why they didn’t do that in Iberville/WBR..
