If I didn't have family here I wouldn't stay here

Let's be honest though this is compared to the rest of the state and not compared to most Texas City/Towns/Burbs. While I agree that the Lafayette Parish School District is the best top to bottom in the state it still pales in comparison to most ISD's in Texas.
Thing is...that's not what he asked, was it? He asked if he was to move back to LA, so I answered the question asked.

I have two in LP schools, live and work in the Broussard/Youngsville area. The above is not a slight in the least bit, but if I were offered similar money to go to McKinney/Allen/Frisco/Waco/Austin/San Marcos.... I would have a Penske truck at my house as soon as I accepted the offer sheet.
I can certainly see an argument for that, but I'm not a fan of Texas despite having been born there. There were times in my life where I could have been convinced to move elsewhere, but I've put real roots down now and have done so in a place that I'm happy with. I don't begrudge anyone that wants to move out of LA and I'd certainly never tell anyone not to move back if it's what they want to do.

I considered moving back for a couple of minutes once, but then quickly came to my senses.

St. James Parish. Nestled between BR and NOLA there is plenty of work available and 30 mins from BR or NOLA if you feel a need to see Professional or college sports and enjoy what the two big cities have to offer.

North of 190 and On up (pointe Coupee/WBR) on the west side of the Mississippi near Baton Rouge and/or West/East Feliciana areas....

Austin is great, but the influx of people from CA and New England is driving the housing market up a lot. Wages aren't keeping up with market prices and soon I believe the bubble will burst. I'm getting to the point where i'd like to buy or build and don't want to raise kids 7 hours from their grandparents.
I know Louisiana sucks in a lot of ways, but just wondering if there are any areas that meet those criteria.

Ferriday or Tallulah
Jk...lol.
Vidalia.
But I'd love to live either somewhere isolated in the hills around N or W la. Or somewhere isolated down in S la with access to both fresh and brackish water... But, here I am, stuck in the middle. But it ain't bad. I enjoy the Vidalia/ Natchez area.

What does this mean?
Lafayette probably fits your criteria, but I don't know if I could live there again.

Shreveport or Laughy

It means not paying to live somewhere when I may be able to get a significantly higher quality of life in another town without paying the same amount.
AKA Not New Orleans

McKinney/Allen/Frisco
You can see that in parts of Allen and west Frisco especially. It's good if you have kids in schools (Frisco at least) but home prices are exploding and apartments are popping up like crazy, thanks in fact to the down times in the late 2000's when the land was sold from developers to commercial ones. And the California influx thanks to Toyota is sucking balls

That's just like, your opinion man.
But for your requirements, I'd go with Lafayette. But I'd also probably live somewhere in Lafayette that you wouldn't consider "realistic home/land prices".
