Dedrick Lebeau, a lifelong New Orleanian, recently moved to Violet, La., after his Freret neighborhood landlord raised the rent on his three-bedroom shotgun, half of a duplex in the 2600 block of Upperline Street, to $1600 a month. He bought a house for the first time in Violet and is paying about $1,300 a month, and far less in property taxes than he’d pay in New Orleans.
What's the problem here?

you get what you pay for, and in NOLA, you pay a premium to be close to your job and live in a bustling city with culture, pro sports, etc. and be able to tell people you live in New Orleans
