The new influx of white, Asian, and Hispanic transplants not only changed the demographic of New Orleans (since Katrina, there are 100,000 fewer black residents living in the city), it also changed the culture. Local dialects have shifted, and some traditions have vanished.

The Bywater was one of the first areas to witness gentrification. Now, it is hard to visit the neighborhood and imagine anything other than a hub of young, hip transplants, but this colorful area once was pallid.

If the Bywater claimed the hipsters, then Mid-City took the families. Mid-City, now a fairly affluent area, has seen a 20 percent drop in African American residents since 2000.

All I hear is "frick these non blacks, they need to be loaded up on a train cart and sent to a camp!". But with a German accent.

Yeah, not sure how you spin that statement.
A coworker asked what I was going to do if black people moved back into my neighborhood. I told them that several of my neighbors were black. I was more afraid of poor people moving in

Gentrification by its simplest definition is a joke. But what’s an actual epidemic nationally, and in this case New Orleans is Air BNB culture. Out of state LLCs are buying up real estate by the masses and pricing out everyone but the upper class. It’s fine when industry brings skilled labor which brings money which brings improvement. This forces out only those that are too lazy and unskilled to compete. But what’s happening now is forcing out middle class and student, which without the actual economy of places like Austin and Nashville, is just going to leave New Orleans a gigantic bachelorette destination with no actual labor force.

Used to have a really good PoBoy place in Bywater....Frady's. Jack Dempseys still down there and Markey's.....but other than that a bunch of out of town hipsters invaded the place.

Plenty of room in the East.
The property taxes being collected are outweighing what the AirBnBs replaced.
IMHO, STRs should be taxed much harder.

I keep hearing this but New Orleans was over priced well before Airbnb.
It’s always been expensive to rent or buy in decent neighborhood because it’s so limited on space.

Now it is expensive in historically shitty neighborhoods
I don't mind the STRs on my block. Never had a real problem with them.
