New Orleans gaining 12% is impressive. I’m sure it’s not all quality people moving in but considering the gentrification and housing prices, at least some of it is.


Will it continue? Who knows.

Do MSA’s - Metro Baton Rouge saw huge growth - Zachary, Central, Ascension, WBR all saw growth. White flight out of Baton Rouge Proper caused the reduction in population.

Was surprised to see that East Baton Rouge and Livingston went up given the flooding just a few years before the census.

How in the crud did Lake Charles increase? Poor place has been wiped out by every hurricane from A-Z! I would have guessed its numbers decreased 50%. Good for them, I guess.

Prairieville 31,974 (+18.88%) will probably crack the Top Ten in 2030.

Crazy that in the 60s New Orleans had over 600,000 people.

2.3% of Bossier's increase came from Shreveport. The rest of Shreveport's loss moved to Stonewall.
