Not too surprising. The city would be somewhat decent if the East disappeared. Sad that area used to be nice until the late-80s.

Gentrification of a city

Geographically those two areas probably account for more than 50% of the city.
Population maybe 1/3.

Only half? That’s kind of shocking

It really is crazy how fast the area went to shite. Driving down Chef Menteur is a harrowing scene. There are countless abandoned and blighted buildings. Former strip malls have maybe one or two occupied tenants, which consist mainly of Cricket wireless/Boost mobile-types, beauty shops, and dollar stores. It's like driving through a third world country.

Legitimate question for you NO baws:
What do you think could be done (realistically) to curb the crime and business problems?
What would an OT run New Orleans look like?

So the other half happen in central city, midcity , gentilly, Algiers and treme
What difference does it make where the murders occur?
Garbage piece by garbage paper

The 7th ward was awful the past few years, but seems to have calmed down now. 7th ward was solid blue collar family territory in the 90s.

Potholes in the east are basically craters.

It isn't just a NOLA problem, it is a Louisiana problem.

It's gentrifying bigly. Realtors are billing it as "New Marigny" and the hipsters come calling.

Bama has problems, too. Birmingham itself is a really, really strange combination of either utter affluence or abject poverty. Y'all just seem to have those sections in a closer geographical overlap, and I don't know that you can sweep the problems under the rug as "those people problems" like you can when people can escape.

Same goes with Lakeview, but I view it as a deterrent from auto theft.

I'd like to see where the OT goes with this. Start a thread.
