5:00 traffic in Uptown is pretty bad at times, but most of that is due to construction.
Take a side street? I generally just drive through the neighborhood, rather than take one of the major streets. Napoleon construction is complete, so I sometimes take that. Now, the roads do definitely suck, that is a valid complaint.

F$&k no. St. Amant being nice is a relic of the pre-Katrina Louisiana. Now, it's just another traffic-jammed, cookie-cutter, tract home, flood-proned, boring-a$$, suburban shitte hole.

What is your issue with Bama, other than the Gumps? From what I see and have heard, Huntsville has it going on. NASA, Polaris, the new Remington plant. I have friends with a place on Guntersville Lake, they love going up there.
I work for a NASA contractor...so that's why I stay..permanent job so far...since 2002. I like it up here as far as beauty...but there's no culture. Back in La there's culture..history. Meaning for why people are who they are.
The Gumps are just the icing on the cake.
Don't get me wrong..it's a good place to raise a family and all..but I just don't identify with these people.

I'm sick of the Baton Rouge bashing on this site. It's played out.
I grew up around Alexandria and lived there for two years after graduation. Baton Rouge is a much better place to be. It's got better restaurants, better bars, more going on. At least you have a decent sized group of young professionals in Baton Rouge -- when I lived in Alexandria, I strictly hung out with co-workers. When I moved here, I made a lot of friends my age outside of work. You've got stuff like Forum 35, Red Stick Area Kickball, Happy's Running Club.
You've got Spanish Town Mardi Gras.
You've got the Red Stick Farmer's Market.
You've got the St. Patrick's Day Parade.
You've got Baton Rouge Blues Festival.
You've got Louie's hash browns.
You've got the Chimes and its beer selection.
You've got the Louisiana Book Festival.
You've got Tony's Seafood.
You've got LSU and all that entails
You've got Southern and all that entails.
You've got neighborhoods like Spanish Town, Beauregard Town, the Garden District, Capitol Heights, Ogden Park, Poets & Philosophers, Kenilworth, Southdowns, etc.
You've got a stable economy, because of state government, the universities, the chemical plants and the hospitals.
Sounds like you're just too attached to that shithole. Prayers sent.

I used to walk my dog 3-4 times a week from Government/Acadian to the LSU lakes and back. It was an easy walk and there were walking trails back then.
As far as downtown, I would say it's walkable as well. Seems like I had to park a mile away for the Elton John concert. If you read again most of my responses were sarcastic.

New Orleans has all kinds of good shortcuts. Like the unmarked entrance onto Earhart from Airline. Or the batcave then U-turn to get to the dome. Or streets that actually grid.
I lived in BR for years. There are no really good cuts,and I know the cuts like Nairn Dr, Broussard/Westdale, and what streets became what.
