re: Convince me that living in Louisiana is better than Mississippi

I was a life long New Orleanian, lived uptown all my life. When I retired, I looked around at all the crime and the state of the local government and decided to moved full time to Bay St Louis, spend most summers here before. Love it over here. Will never move back. no real crime, not much traffic, nice restaurants, fish when the weather allows. Nola can burn down as far as I'm concerned now. But property values are going up fast, good properties dont stay on the market more than a couple of days.
