It’s not a bad area....plenty worse in BR.



The question was overall safety, not a relative to BR safety

North of I-12 and Airline, No its not safe.

South of I-12 and Airline, Yes it is safe.

Costco is south of both, so yes, but it is boarder lineish.

It’s a membership club store that is always crowded. It would take a lot for me to say they aren’t relatively safe. If late, pay attention to surroundings I guess, but that’s any parking lot.

What exactly do you think will pop off?

Safe in any city, but don’t be deceived, crime can happen anywhere, yet you can’t live your life living in a constant state of fear. Well, I guess you can, but that’s not living.

There are plenty of areas in the BR to be concerned over your wife shopping by herself, but Costco isn’t really one of them.

That area doesn't bother me much. Hell, we don't live that far from there.

I don’t think it’s in a bad area at all. Like others have said, there are way worse places it could be.

Good Lord dude, it's not bad at all. Your wife and kids will be safe in BR at that location.

A couple bad dudes once followed My wife and kids but they got the manager to walk them to the car and it was later confirmed they were sex traffickers! She made sure to share the experience on Facebook

Do you really tell your wife where she can shop?

Refresh my memory on the recent events that have gone down at the BR Costco that are giving you these feelings?

It’s fine, but if you haven’t figured out yet that you gotta have your head on a swivel ANYWHERE in EBR Parish as darkness descends you best wake up.
