Nola is already liberal so not like the voting pattern would change, but maybe some investment would help the area.
NO CHANCE, for the same reason big companies have been fleeing NOLA since the oil bust in 80s.

Deep red states will continue to get redder. That’s guaranteed.

I don't know if I would consider the smaller blue urban cities in the deep south as strictly "liberal" the way most people think of the word. At least the population generally isn't. They are just majority black and have been conditioned to vote D. I don't think they are true believers in a lot of liberal policies other than the ones that they have been convinced are in their self interest. If you can break that conditioning (monumental IF), you could turn some of those cities red without having to change a lot of minds on the 80/20 cultural issues.

Jacksonville has over 1M residents and they’re more R than D. They barely flipped D in 2023 mayoral race but Trump won in 24

I’m considering metro Atlanta, Nashville, or Charlotte. I’m looking for a lower cost of living even though I know that it will be a downgrade in nearly every way that matters aside from cost.
