This is a brutal reminder of my cost of living in Dallas. $1149 wouldn't even get you a studio in the shittiest outskirt of town.

Baton Rouge still has some advantages.

Why not just stay in p-ville and commute? I don’t understand the move?


45 minutes in a vehicle, twice a day, to live in Prairieville, lol. Your quality of life increases dramatically when move less than 10 minutes from your job.

Read title as “Heroin Apartments “ when I clicked in. Surprised it wasn’t heroin.

Does spending more money to live in fricking br really “dramatically” increase your quality of life? I don’t think so.

I looked at those but for the same price I would be looking at a 500sqft studio.

I’d rather live on Jennifer Jean. Apartments in this town are for the birds.

You’re delusional if you think moving to downtown br is a dramatic increase in quality of life over commuting from pville

Christian St was clutch the last year I lived in BR, circa 2012. Walking distance to overpass bars and restaurants and 5-7 mins to DT.

Pool looks cool
In one of my Dallas rentals, I lived in a 2nd story condo overlooking the pool. Saw a couple down there going at it on a chase lounge one night. Our pool was set up so that noises carried, and almost seemed amplified. I could hear people talking.

From the pic goofball posted, those are some tiny balconies/patios. The first floor is really close to the pool. Is there a parking garage or reserved covered parking?
