Downtown Baton Rouge is leaps and bounds better now than pre-Katrina.

This might actually be the most accurate answer.
Landon Collins, Eddie Lacy, Eric Reid, were all at Dutchtown High well after I graduated. But they all came from New Orleans post Katrina.

Going to places like Walmart are a lot more fun in terms of people watching. If you're ever feeling depressed, just walk around the contana Walmart for 20 min.youll come out feeling like you have the best life in the world.

Downtown is better but is that cause or correlation?

they built all those new neighborhoods that look exactly the same.

I think it's almost certainly correlation, but I just wanted to point out that BR didn't turn into some shithole post-Katrina. I tend to think it's a much better city overall now compared to 10-20 years ago (I can't speak to how it was anything before the mid-90s).
ETA: There may be some cause and effect based on Kip's admin doing a good job with the extra federal money and extra tax revenue from additional population.

Galatoires came here after Katrina.
We also got to see Saints games in Tiger Stadium. That should never happen again but was cool.
