Its not like you can walk to everything you need like parts of The Uptown, Mid City, Bywater. You aren’t on a parade route or have street cars. You still have to take a $20 Uber to get to places.

You’re a NLA idiot, aren’t you? I can walk to the grocery, two bars, countless restaurants, the cleaners, three schools, etc.

I’m glad I’m not on a parade route, don’t miss strangers pissing on my azaleas.

You can catch the streetcar by the Bulldog on Canal.

It’s not a $20 Uber ride to the FQ or Uptown.

Why live in Lakeview anyway ? You get all the NOLA bullshite without any of the charming culture. Its not like you can walk to everything you need like parts of The Uptown, Mid City, Bywater. You aren’t on a parade route or have street cars. You still have to take a $20 Uber to get to places. Might as well live in Metairie.

I'll never understand this. Living in Lakeview is practically living in Metairie, but you have to deal with the bullshite parts of living in Orleans parish. If you're going to live in New Orleans, at least live somewhere where you get the benefits of living in New Orleans (Uptown, Mid City, etc...).

ETA: before I get accused of being a "NLA idiot", I lived Uptown on the parade route for 4+ years.
