I noticed that alongside many of the roads in other parts of Louisiana as well.
Basically every roadway along I-10 especially in populated areas like Lafayette, BR and Nola. You don’t see as much litter going north on 49 obviously because there’s not as many people and not as many people passing through.

NOLA doesn’t even have a half million people.

New Orleans metro area may have around 1 million people but the city of New Orleans itself has around 400,000.

Yeah I edited. I was spot on my Mexico city guess, but I don't know my own city

N.O has a higher homicide rate than Mexico City, not total homicides.

I live in Md and when landscaping companies expanded their operations a few miles away, the litter on the roads skyrocketed. The hispanic workers literally threw all their trash out the trucks. 7-11 lunches and big gulps are thrown out on the streets when finished. I think it's cultural...

When it comes to litter alongside the roads...you have to admit Louisiana is really bad compared to other states.
I lived in Louisiana for 28 years before I left and it was one of the first things I noticed when living in another state.
My family lived in Louisiana all their lives (my dad 68 years) and it was one of the first things they noticed as well when I moved them here after the flood. How much cleaner the streets are compared to Louisiana.

Not everywhere in La is a dirty pile of garbage.....you just happened to have lived right in the center of one

Yeah...when I was a child. You do realize I have lived all over different parts of Baton Rouge as an adult before I moved out of state? I moved out of NBR when I was 18 and never moved back.
Also...my family didn't always live in NBR either...they also moved to another part of Baton Rouge.
My aunts have lived in other parts of the state as well(besides Baton Rouge). And they both have commented on the amount of litter in Louisiana as a whole compared to other states.
Other posters in similar threads have made the same comments. Posters that didn't live in NBR.
But keep on with your "but...but..you lived in NBR" comment you seem to cling to.
You are so blind you can't even see the heaps of trash in your state...now that is sad.

My guess? NOLA
NOLA population: 400,000
Mexico City population: 9,000,000
I’m gonna guess that NOLA has fewer murders...

It's a plague and we don't use our resources to keep it clean.
Another reason to despise LA leadership

I agree. One of the first things I notice when back in Louisiana. For what it is worth, I've lived in both NOLA and BR.

It has nothing to do with AZ though.
Ask any other poster that has moved out of LA to other states and they will tell you the same thing.
You won’t even see it as a problem with LA. Which means you have gotten so used to it that you just assume all the litter along roadways in the state are totally normal. That’s what is sad.

It starts with the citizens of the state.

382 intentional homicides between January 1 and the end of April.
Mexico City has a population of just shy of 9 million people inside the city limits and over 20 million in its metro area.
New Orleans has a population of about 400k and a metro area of only 1.25 million people.
So, that means that Mexico city has approximately 22.5 times as many people in its city limits. So, if Mexico City keeps killing at that 4 month clip for a whole year (382*3=1146), that’s not 22.5 times as many murders as New Orleans. Comparing metro areas, that’s not 16 times as many murders either.
400k people/157 murders= murder rate of 39.25/100k for NOLA.
9 million people/1146 murders= murder rate of just 12.73/100k for Mexico City.
New Orleans’s murder rate isn’t just higher than Mexico City’s, it’s 3 TIMES HIGHER!!!

No, I see it.....but it's not just a La problem...it's a cultural problem.
It's a problem that many other places deal with...not just in La
You think that fricking caravan coming through Mexico arent going to litter your state with trash, as well as Cali, NM, Texas, etc....you better think again.

Litter and dumping ( tires,crawfish boil remnants,deer remains,etc). Is rampant in Louisiana. The bridges have litter on them. The next intersection down from where workers buy their breakfast and beer is always a mess.

So let me get this straight, you think all the litter in the state of Louisiana is caused by Mexicans?
