Are you the mayor or something?

I like the Shreveport area. Lots of beautiful neighborhoods right outside the city.
I like it better than Baton Rouge, tbh.
The only redeeming qualities of Baton Rouge, imo, are LSU and its close proximity to New Orleans
I've spent a ton of time in Shreveport for work, it just didn't feel like a "large" city. Especially in relation to the population of the city. I'm not a big fan of Baton Rouge but it's third on my list because of it's proximity to New Orleans and Lafayette.
ETA: Also, my wife is from Baton Rouge and likes the area, so that would play into a decision to live there.

I just assumed that is what he meant by it doesn't feel that big
city population is larger, but Laffy has more outer neighborhoods

Alexandria is pretty depressing.

For people with depression. It's the greatest place on the planet.

well it certainly isn't a large city
the only large city in LA is NOLA and it isn't even really large

Isn't Shreveport basically a 24/7 war zone?

If you are young and single. It's probably one of the better places in LA to raise a family IMO. Public schools are not shitty and crime is very contained to a specific part of town. And some very pretty neighborhoods.
Posted on 12/17/15 at 11:12 am to Salmon
Crime is that bad?

Why is this funny? It's personal opinion and i like the Northshore Blanchard area far more than the areas with busted street lights and bars over every window.

I'll try to find the poll but a few years ago the Times did a reader poll where the %'s were LSU-Tech-A&M-NSU-Other, so I would say their numbers are healthy there.

yeah I wouldn't consider new orleans a large city
Houston is a large city....Chicago is a large city
