If you can afford Old Metairie, you can afford a generator.


Is a generator common in LA? I understand hurricane potential but, other than that, is power that spotty?

I know they're common in the upper North East but didn't know them to be needed elsewhere.

More common than you would expect. It really depends on the area you live in. Most of the state still has above ground lines and some areas are always losing power with storms.

I have a good friend who lives a little west of Baton Rouge who built a house right after hurricane Gustav(sp). I think he spent $5K on a generator and to this day has never had to use it.
