Older, slowly moving out and being replaced by upper middle class families that want to be in a good school district...with the occasional rental house rented to degenerates.

It annoys me more than it should when I wave to a neighbor or someone driving down the street when I'm out front and they don't wave back. Doesn't happen too often, but I think for a minute how rude people are

always liked Lafayette, used to live in Mouton Gardens when I first got out of LSU, the last place I lived was north of town, almost to Carencro, had about 6 acres out in the cone-tree, had some really good times there

Small neighborhood, kind of hidden off the beaten path. Mostly white, middle to upper middle class. A few black and hispanic households. Some college kids in rentals due to the college down the street. It's a quiet and comfortable neighborhood.

Upper Middle Class Diverse?

Me...older white guy with family. Neighbor on one side is a business owner from India with family...Neighbor on other side is black (former NFL player) with family. Guy behind me is single business owner from Moldova.

There are quite a few retired boomers in my neighborhood, but most of my immediate neighbors are Gen-X.

Young to mid 50’s.

White.

Wealthy.

When I moved into this neighborhood in 2001 it was more middle class and a LOT older.

Used to be old people with walkers. Now it’s young couples with strollers.

Well since you asked...I live next to the woods at the end of a dead end street in the historic area of a small town. So we have 5 other houses on our block.

House next door: An elderly woman lives there. She is married, but her husband lives in a separate house about 10 minutes away. He comes and stays a couple of days a week. She does not drive, so she does not leave the house unless he brings her somewhere. She really only comes outside to bring the garbage out. When the husband is around, the following things happen:
-He gets carted off in an ambulance a couple of times a year. Always ends up being angina and he's back home the next day.
-Cops come to the house. He's been arrested at least once for domestic violence.
-She makes him leave the house because he's drunk in the middle of the day and she says he goes to bars and hits on other women. He asks for a ride to his house, we tell him to call a cab.
-Cops have come to my house asking if I've seen her lately when doing a welfare check on her because she wouldn't answer the door. Then the next day the husband says it's her daughter that sends the cops to check on the wife, but they don't want anything to do with the daughter because she's Pentecostal and "crazy."

And that's just our immediate next door neighbors. There's more with the other houses on the street. And we don't live in a trailer park. We live in a historic district on a block full of crazies.

Lower Upper class 4 to 5 bedroom houses that want good schools. Overall older couples in their 60-70s that want to move but would have to spend same amount on smaller high-end house, so they stay. The houses that have turned over have 2-5 kids each and are fairly diverse. White/Black/Indian. Everyone's yard is cut at least once a week but both my neighbors cut twice a week....which makes us feel obligated to do so. Most everyone is pleasant enough. No major hurtles with neighbors...which probably means we are problem.

Immediate neighbors are diverse as far as some are gay some not. A little mix of religions, and ethnicity but for the most part well off as most of the homes around me are second homes for our neighbors. And the people who live here full time bought cheap many years ago and are now sitting on a million dollar house.

I live in what I think most would consider an upper middle class neighborhood, homes range from $400-900K.

We have a mix of young and old homeowners. We still have trashy people who don't care for their property.

There is no longer a financial separation from those who are responsible and those who aren't.

A few Indian (dot) families but that’s as much diversity as there is.

I do enjoy saying hello to them though cause they sound like Apu off the Simpson’s when they speak and the grandpa bobbles his head when he talks.

My parents live on one side of me. Ole boy from Church point lives on the other. He keeps his front yard up, back yard looks like a scrap yard. Pretty sure he doesn't own a weed eater, but it is fenced in so I don't have to look at it. The guy next to him has been unemployed a year, the wife has a good job. Mows his lawn once a quarter. Middle class for the most part with some trash here and there.
