Dude, his parents used to have a house in the Quarter.
But they just sold it last month.
RIP AbitaFan’s parents house.

Honestly, most long-time New Orleanians that I know (keyword long-time) are aware of how fricked up the city is and how irrational it is to live there. It's just that the city means so much to people that they're willing to go down with it. I'm not on that level, but I actually find it admirable in a way.
it really is amazing
i rotate between being frustrated to admiring the irrationality

Tried and true New Orleanians are blindly optimistic. It’s honestly a little admirable, but mostly depressing

i get it...it's cool to live in nola,but look how close it came to having another Katrina this year.that's not cool.i guess there are a lot of people with more money than sense.
Not a single house on Laurel Street flooded after Katrina. Just FYI, housing prices in the "sliver by the river" are higher because they're the high ground.

3200 Laurel isn’t terrible either - without looking I think this is near Gen. Taylor
That would be Louisiana, Irish Channel

Yea but if you survive your house will have appreciated by like 300%

The Irish Channel was at one point in time one place you didn't drive your car through during the day. (1990s)

Given enough time and we'll have all of the NOLA criminal element run off to Laplace, Baton Rouge and Houston!

You know what I say now to these threads/discussions? God bless us all to live in the places where we so choose.

Yeah, but do they love their city enough to risk a murder rate that is one of the highest in the nation and risk living in a place KNOWN to have recently experienced a major natural disaster that destroyed tens of thousands of homes and rendered over a million people homeless overnight and resulted in over half the population of the city proper being homeless for weeks if not months following? Have they personally suffered great loss and tragedy as a result of their love of city yet their love of city endures?
I rest my case.

I would agree but exactly how much time do you give New Orleans East? I think another 40 years before that housing stock is completely worn out and is need of demolition.

For those prices you can get a much bigger home on the north shore. Better schools and neighborhoods.
