re: Best Small Towns in Louisiana to Grow Up In

I’ll see you Evergreen, and raise you Rassville

Lake D'Arbonne was beautiful and fun in the summer, but Farmerville was a terrible place to grow up in the 70's. I doubt having a chicken processing plant and a McDonalds makes it any better today. They don't even have Folly Beach anymore.

Haughton area

Pre-Katrina.. Buras,La

Maurice

I’d say Covington. That’s probably the only one.

Women from Ville Platte are crazy psychos with good pussy

Ville Platte is a shithole.

I haven't read the entire thread yet, but it didn't use to be. A nice State Park close, nice Cajun people, church going community, decent public and private schools, very good Dixie Youth baseball league, etc.

Then, well....

grew up in Central in the 80s and early 90s. It was a perfectly fine little town to grow up in.

Yeah, but other than a school named Central and CAYL, it didn't have that small town mentality.


Except we fought other schools/towns, we did do that. But mostly schools.

I was a minden baw. I sort of enjoyed growing up there; lots of nice neighborhoods, clean, charming, no crime, etc. The schools are a total joke, so I’m not sure if I’d recommend raising anyone there unless you’re sending your kid to a school in Shreveport or Ruston

otherwise it’s way nicer than the majority of small towns in Louisiana
