Yea it was so poorly produced. Shame. Even the tape from the store sounded terrible. Not saying it would have Rivaled "Dope Man" but it could have been a national hit if done better. I just love the raw gritty genuine feeling that it's about shite they knew and lived daily.

You're going against traffic if you live on the eastbank. You're probably talking a ~20 minute commute from the Garden District/Warehouse District, which are two of the best areas in NOLA. The Warehouse District especially is great for younger professionals without children. Uptown near Tulane is a ways away from the bridge and will be inconvenient.

If you want a dullish, cheaper, but still OK for family area, old Jefferson and River Ridge near the Huey P would be good.

Do not live on the Westbank (which Marrero is a part of).

Old Gretna (river side of Westbank Expressway only) is one of the nicer areas in metro New Orleans and you would be really close to work.

Gotcha, best of luck. I did a stint at West Jeff for a while.

Lol what? Take Octavia, Nashville, Broadway or Napoleon to Broad to Earhart to CCC. 10-15 min tops from Uptown near Tulane. With heavy traffic coming home 20-25 min tops.

Rent an apartment in The Saulet. They do short term type stuff and are filled with young professional types. Easy interstate access and lots of stuff within walking distance.

I'm not an OT baller who can afford a one bedroom 575sqft at $1300 a month. At least not during school.

Gretna and Algiers are your best bet.

I prefer Gretna. They got unicorns up in Gretna.

Might have to go Westbank, you can get one of those castles made of playdough for cheap.




What is your price range, it will help with telling you where to look. I didn't know The Saulet was that expensive now.

You can get you a real nice apartment on Manhattan by the Walmart for $600.

And they got pandas down there in Harvey.

My parents live down Barataria in Marerro. If they didn't live there I would have no reason to go to the westbank. Parts of it are oK, and there are some nice subdivisions, but I would never want to live there.

I would be happy to commute there for work.
