Greensburg is lucky to have running water.
I’ve had to take too many trips through there to have any illusions about what is there. It’s like Ferriday but with fewer projects.
That would not be a pleasant daily commute either.

Driving through Ferriday 
Posted on 4/4/22 at 1:03 pm to Breauxsif
I drove through Ferriday for the first time a few years ago. It was like 9am on a Thursday and there were a staggering amount of people just walking around or loitering outside the convenience store.

If you didn’t grow up in Ascension Parish, you won’t like it. They do not like people from Baton Rouge moving there. They won’t accept them.

"Everybody saying St Francisville should be a red flag. Nice place now, but in ten years it will be a hellscape of cheaply built subdivisions. IDK what the answer is but it should be someplace not many people have thought of yet."
Exactly what is happening in the Hammond / Ponchatoula area. A new 250 home project is started by DSLD about once a week. It's already becoming intolerable - I can't imagine how bad it will be in 10 years. I (as well as many people I know in the area) am already working on an exit plan.

But that’s a problem.
If they build the diversion canal and some baw pokes holes through the concrete walls on I-12, it'll be fine.

St Francisville is one of the most anti-development suburbs in the region.

For peace and quiet and rolling hills: St. Francisville
For fishing and boating and good public schools: Ascension side of the Diversion Canal
For city conveniences and private schools: LSU lakes/perkins overpass area, Spanish Town/Beauregard Town
For shooting ducks out your bedroom window on a giant lot where you can barely see your neighbors who each make 7 figures a year: Hoo Shoo Too
For an easy commute to downtown/Exxon, nice subdivisions, and good schools: Zachary

In a way, you just described pretty much every parish in Louisiana in a nutshell.
