It’s gotten big enough up there that many don’t have to anymore. Census bureau made it its own metro area recently. Not enough people are commuting south anymore for it to be considered part of the New Orleans metro by the more official definitions.

Good, too much congestion, flooding etc
While I am not arguing for or against any side of this. I do know that the drainage requirements for new developments within the parish are relatively aggressive compared to neighboring parishes. The biggest one being the reduction in stormwater runoff from pre-developed state to the post developed state of the property. This typically includes a detention pond that will collect/hold rain water and slowly release it at a desired flow rate that is less than the pre-developed site runoff flow rate. So "in theory", these new developments "should" improve the drainage in their respective drainage basins. Are these developments always built to spec? no. That's why I say "in theory".
Nerd out.

A drive through Covington will show you its sorta looking dumpy in places. Plenty of Nissans and Kias. St Tammany should be very proud.
