I think the big concern here is how quickly New Orleans became little brother to Austin. I hate what Austin has become, but NO population in the city declined from 1960-2010. It’s population reduced by about 40%. In the same timeframe, ATX went from 186,545 in the city to nearly 800,000.
This isn’t about skyscrapers and loft apartments. If people want to spend their money on that, fine. Growth is great. I wish New Orleans would get back to where it once was.

Is it? Or have these people moved away, but want to maintain a little getaway to the Crescent City?

Austin is a good comparator to Nola if you are looking at mid-major markets. It truly is a tale of two cities if you look at population and economic movement in the last quarter century. It’s as if one city has become a magnet and the other, a repellant. I too wish that Nola recognizes what it needs to do to attract the right kind of business and gets its act together.

so you hate what austin has become but you want new orleans to be more like it? what
before covid, new orleans was doing pretty well...although im not sure where it goes from here or how impactful that will be long term on the city
i personally do not want new orleans to be more like austin but adding a ~100,000k more to the population would be a good thing
