It is interesting that Nola peeps made a couple of other cities worse
there was and is absolutely no way to make the shite hole of Baton Rouge worse - it was improved if anything. Baton Rouge has always been a smaller version of New Orleans with more serial killers and pedophiles. Baton Rouge people will deny this, but it’s true.

The funny thing about feelings is they don’t care about facts…if/when it’s your picture and you are simply wrapped into a group of people that deliver the underlying things that drive your facts.

Same for Jxn, MS. It was already on the way down, but Katrina certainly hastened the timeline.

One of the steps you listed is driven by government mandate.


That didn’t happen, nationally, anyway. Definitely encouraged and some areas may require it.

A lot of the new towns have prohibited being added to county water, so properties have to be on one acre lots for septic. Developers are good at finding spots with prior zoning for dense housing, though and work the deal with shitty council members.

My in-laws have been fighting one of those huge mixed-housing developments in their backyard, where they wanted to jam in tons of apartments, town homes, single family homes, and even section 8 housing, literally in the backyards of a high end neighborhood.

I was offered a job in Memphis years ago, and I asked the people I met where we should look to live, and they all said… Mississippi.

he makes the money and I homeschool the kids

Unfortunately, we’ve been in BR for 20 years and in the past 5 years my kids can’t play outside anymore. That’s a damned shame and hardly Katrina’s fault. Maybe it’s time for me to run the show

And Katrina people did not make Houston, Chicago, Atlanta, Jackson, or Memphis WORSE. ffs

It’s hilarious to see things go full circle. Schools turn to shite, stores close, people move. Great schools, new shopping centers, property values skyrocket. Developers slam in apartments and multi-family housing. Schools turn to shite,stores close, people move. Do that a couple times until you’ve reached 50 miles… and then people start fixing up old crackhouses and create new trendy in-town villages.

Not really hilarious. It’s fricking sad and infuriating. And our dear government helps this process via HUD.

It’s impossible to quantify the cost expended by normal people just to get away from the ghetto trash. The traffic, the sprawl, the road construction etc.

my siblings and I played outside in the 90s when the crime was worse

I’m sure there are places in BR where you can play outside, I find it just changes so fast in BR - I remember driving up to the Cortana Mall in the 90s, and then it went totally shite after the new mall, and now gone. Yet lakeside still stands - and it wasn’t great in the 90s

Yep. I commuted 30 miles each way in Atlanta traffic for years. I spent on average 10-15 hours per week just getting to and from work.

Obama shipped them out to the suburbs and brought them to us. Dallas and its suburbs, coincidentally where this happened, was the original testing ground for his administration’s massive HUD project designed to destroy the suburbs.

no, I typed that wrong - I’m going to fix it

We’d go to Cortana in the 90’s, then it went to shite pretty quick after the Mall of Louisiana was built, now it’s gone.
