Cops always seem to be patrolling as well, I guess because it’s more well to do.

Most of the 20-30 year olds I work with that are single live in Lakeview or around Carrollton/St. Charles/Oak St area.
She just needs to watch herself like any major city now a days.

I lived in Carrollton next to Panola St Cafe as a young professional. Had one side of a shotgun. Safe is a relative term in that city. I considered my street somewhat safe. We didn't have a lot of homicides, but I also didn't walk down the street without looking over my shoulder every so often, especially at night. Muggings of Tulane kids in our neighborhood was pretty common. My next door neighbors were once forced inside, tied up, and then robbed. They also sold drugs, so who knows.

If she's working in the CBD and you can afford it, you want the golden rectangle from the garden district to uptown. Lakeview is out of the way.
Despite the proliferation of condos in the CBD in both new buildings and retrofitted ones, the CBD is not a good place to be at night.

That's quite the qualifier.

Uhhhh. The majority of New Orleans haha? Although it’s obviously not the only part of the city where they have some wealthy folks.

I'm moving there soon too. Warehouse District.
Sounds like she would be the perfect roommate.
Hit me up!

Old Metairie (the real one, not the extended version the OT refers to)
Warehouse district would be my #1 choice. Depending on where she's working ,it may even be walking distance
Lakeview would be my #2 choice, followed by Mid-City.
I do not know the ins and outs as well as I used to, but along with any gated communities you should check for the ones with HOAs that pay for security patrols.

You get a lot of bang for your buck in West Virginia these days

It's basically an extension of Metairie.

They’ll be bored in Lakeview, mostly families and not much to offer in terms of nightlife.

Warehouse district condo for sure. We're in one now and its very safe compared to a shotgun in uptown or mid city

I live in Lakeview very close to Harrison. Police presence is excellent, but of course we have the occasional problem with idiots pulling on car door handles, once every few months or so. I can walk to pretty much anything... bank, grocery store, post office, drug store, restaurants, bars, etc. There's plenty to do, and it is pretty safe. House next to me is for sale, and looks like it'll be on the market for rent pretty soon. Probably 4 bedrooms, one house off Harrison. Send me a message if you'd like to reach out to them.

Anywhere between the river and St. Charles and Jefferson and Napoleon Ave.
Posted on 4/14/21 at 8:43 am to Bjorn Cyborg
Mandeville or Old Metairie
NOLA is bad all over. Lakeview is experiencing high crime and car jackings. Pay extra tax for police in Lakeview and never see any police presence in Lakeview.
