Sssshhhh!

Break ins aren't as frequent in Old Jefferson area and South Baton Rouge around Bluebonnet.

There's some trashy low income apartments off of Sherwood Forest next to the Whitney bank, and those are next to an entrance to Woodland Ridge. Plus some low income neigborhodd across the street from Dunkin Donuts in Sherwood, and that neigborhood backs up to Camelot. I think people from those are doing the break ins in the area. I saw way too many cars with rims and sagging pants from those apartments when I drove by them every day coming home from school.

And I'm not trying to scare anyone here, but it is a legitimate concern in the area, and this is my honest opinion. A friend of my mom had her house broken into while she was at home with her kids and her husband was away. Had to lock themselves in the attic and beg the police to come, but the burglars were gone by the time the police got there. Again, the break-ins aren't every night, and we never had our house broken into, nor any of our direct neighbors, but multiple houses on our street were burglarized over a 5 year period. So buyer be warned, an alarm system is a requirement for the area, and you'd be better off with a closed garage, not an open carport like many of the homes have

Ok

I'd check out some South BR neighborhoods, like Quail Ridge, Oak Hills, D'Iberville Terrace.
