New Orleans has lost tens of thousands of white collar jobs to Houston, Dallas, and Atlanta over the past 35 years.
My biggest complaint is the loss of jobs and opportunity. Fix that and everything else will fall in line quickly.
This. New Orleans needs to become business friendly instead of anti.

Freeport is moving its corporate headquarters from New Orleans to Phoenix, Arizona, closer to Phelps’ U.S. copper mines. With the acquisition, it marks the end of a name that had done business in America since before the Civil War.

Freeport McMoran Copper and Gold(the Fortune 500 company) moved a decade ago to Phoenix

The entire state of Louisiana does, and they need to start with a revamped tax code.
And New Orleans needs to specialize in an area that isn't already hosted in Houston, Baton Rouge, Mobile, or Dallas.

I tend not to enjoy restaurant gumbo as much in general. Though a few places have a good one like Coquette, Commanders etc.
Bourbon House and Desire Oyster Bar also have very good gumbo.

The Memphis metro is home to more Fortune 500 companies than the entire state of Louisiana.
for me, the appeal of new orleans is that it does not have big industry.
complaining about something the city will never be just doesnt make sense - its a boutique city.

I'll have to add those to my list. My thing is that a good gumbo should straddle the line between stew and soup. I find restaurants sometimes go too far into the stew direction.

Nola has almost 400k people. It has almost no business. You have better luck finding work in Metairie.
