No. I forgot his username. Not a regular poster. He said he works for his money, so he's working class.

He even posted his paystub in the thread lmao.

Well I'm glad you like LC so much you want to be there forever.


Save it bud. Lsu777 will defend that shite hole LC until the end of time like his life depended on it. The dude is brainwashed. I mean he legit tried to argue that LC has better cuisine and more authentic Cajun culture than that of Acadiana and SELA. In his mind, LC is the shite and nothing we say will change his mind.

Not even close, the fact that LC is even close to a top 5 city in Louisiana speaks more to the shitty sad state of LA more than LC.

Please point to where I did that? Because the would not even be close to the truth.

Not even close lol. LC is what it is. Lafayette is better for most people and is a better city overall. Lived in BR, it sucks arse. NOLA sucks pretty damn bad too.

North shore is way better.

Overall LC sucks, it just sucks less than most places in LA. But if you are raising a family, want to make a good living while having a low cost of living, have nice neighborhoods to live in and have good schools to send your kids...it's not bad. Especially if you like hunting, fishing, and golf.

There you go again. You just couldn’t leave it at LC being a shite hole. You had to go all delusional again. LC COL is rising faster than anywhere in the state because of all the west lake activity. It’s expensive now. Hunting? The duck is shite now. They all stay up north. Deer? Yeah right. Fishing is decent I’ll give it that. Good schools? False.

Not compared to other cities its own size. And any col rise is because of the hurricane.

Not what it used to be but still pretty damn good comparatively.


quote:

Deer? Yeah right


Deer hunting isn't great, but its not terrible either

quote:

Fishing is not decent, the inland salt water fishing is the beat in the USA and before the hurricane the marsh fishing was awesome.



quote:

Good schools? False.


Barbe, Westlake and Sam Houston are all A schools. Sulphur is a decent school too. Plus if you want private school St Louis is a very good school.

Better public options than BR, unless you go to Zachary, but every complain about LC you have...well you have it on Zachary 10 fold.

Better public schools than Nola

Just as good or better than Laffy.

Shall I continue?

Are they as good as Texas schools??? Hell no, but they are never going to be just based on demographics and the ability to create independent school districts. But compared to the other cities in LA it has as good or better.

Mandeville and rest of north shore has better due to demographics.

The only thing I will say as someone in the market to buy a home- some of these LC people have vastly overrated their property values.

It’s hard right now because every redneck with an insurance check is out there buying, but eventually things will even out. Probably toward the back half of the year.

We’re in the $400-500K home range and what you think you’d get ain’t what they try to sell you for that.

Then you run the risk of out pricing the market. The number of people that can and will afford a $500K home isn’t great. Usually those types build their own. The economy might boom now but not well enough to see a realistic return in five to seven years on that home.

Prolly the most level headed and realistic thing you have said lately.

100% correct. Market is a sellers market right now for sure. And yes slc is stupid expensive right now.

You sure love throwing the demographics word around. Once again, you are an extreme homer and are completely stretching the truth about lake Charles but hey whatever makes you feel better. It’s still a shithole by Louisiana standards. Not much different than Alexandria or Monroe.
