That's a beauty
Agreed
What is the school system? I am Looking for opportunities for my kids with special needs
Lafayette Parish.
I was in Lafayette 2 weeks ago for the first time, visiting on busness from London. I really enjoyed the town, it has a great vibe, super friendly, lovely people. Amazing coffee at Reve and opposite, the best pizza I ever ate outside of Italy at Jim Deggy's!!
That’s great to hear. I love London!
The best cooking is in St. Landry Parish. Gumbo and all!!
That great…but I’m curious where? The best gumbo I have had was in Abbeville and Maurice
Best Gumbo is at my house
Overly pepper food does not equal good.
Lafayette is a Gem. I used to always plan on spending a day there when I used to travel between Houston, Texas and Birmingham, Al. Wonderful food and wonderful people. I'm fixing to retire soon and am strongly considering the Lafayette area to finish out my time on this earth.
That’s great to hear. Let me know if I can help. We would love to give you a warm welcome here
I live in Lafayette, Louisiana
Nice! How do you like it?
It’s cool
New Orleans. Lafayette sucks by comparison. Give it up Abbeville Boy.
😂😂😂 dang. I didn’t say I hate NOLA, but Lafayette is safer. 😌 just sayin
@@DrakeAbshireLivingInLafayette This is true, Drake. I lived in NO for 34 years and have been here for 4 years now. Lafayette has its charms, but you just can’t beat NO’s stellar varied architecture and genuinely unique culture. If you ever want to go to lunch or dinner, just let me know. I haven’t seen you since circa Halloween 2012. You were about to get into the boxing ring, as I recall. I’ve always thought you were a sweetheart.
How is the property tax in lafayette? The property tax In new orleans is really high thinking about moving to lafayette.
Property taxes can be high in the city but outside just the parish taxes are more affordable
I feel like if your life gave you this choice you'd be better off just picking another state altogether.
Nah Louisiana is affordable and great. Just depends what you are looking for
Not the Louis getting smashed 😮😂
😂
Dude-considering Lafayette for just based on your vids.
Thanks that’s great to hear
As a gay man, Lafayette is far more welcoming and comfortable to live in vs Baton Rouge.
That’s good to know. Thanks for sharing
Wow! ❤
Right? So pretty
Usually advertising shows the good sides of the cities and towns, is awesome to have this kind of information not only the good or pretty sites of towns but also the dangerous side to be aware of, I would had like to have heard this information of this video few years back,
Thank you! I appreciate that
I am coming down next week for a interview. I live in western Ky. I am being told to look for houses in youngsville are ? Is this a good area ?
Absolutely! Feel free to text me. I got a lot of videos on here that show what Youngsville is like
Love the home ❤ I say 265k
Wow nailed it!
$259,900
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 This is to hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you!
Can you give me some areas to look into that have 800 rent? Looking to be close to the city as well.
That’s gonna be tough. I would check out Carencro, Duson, Scott and Maurice for probably lowest rent and not long drives
I was about to "hmm yeah okay zaddy" until the door opened😂
😂😂😂
The glory hole for patched up between the change rooms. I’m not coming back. That’s homophobic.
We love your channel/ content ❤
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoy it
I HEARD ABOUT THAT!!!
They did cut rates too!
Super cute place!
Thanks! I agree
Not looking good today…
It shouldn’t be bad at all. We’ve been thru worst
Don’t move to Louisiana if you are Democrat!! Republicans Only!!!!
Bought in Broadmoor almost a year ago. Best decision of my life. Almost bought Downtown, which looked better this summer cutting grass in Broadmoor, lol.
That’s great to hear! Love hearing real life experiences back up what I’m telling people
I been away from home for 15 years. Eventually, Ill move back. Lafayette definitely has a place in the heart. It has grown alot but not quite there yet.
Agreed. We still have a ways to go. But I’m very excited for what the next 5-10 years will bring here
When you say family and annual income is that Net or Gross per year
Acorrding to the stats I was looking at that’s gross
I’m here!!!! Finally
Great content!
Thank you man
We love high ways running right through cities wooh!!🎉
I think this is sarcasm right? 😂😂😂
I use to live in Lafayette Louisiana for 15 years went to New Iberia senior high then Acadiana high school. Lafayette does have a good culture & good food arguably the one of the best in the nation my opinion. The only thing that drove me away from Louisiana especially acadiana was its to close knit you gotta know people to get a job and to open up a business too. I moved back to my home state of Texas back in 2022 and living in the DFW area has been the best decision I ever made.. living in Louisiana felt like I was living in backwards time.. Texas is soo much better I don’t get the hype why Lafayette Louisiana is growing I don’t see it in my opinion
I appreciate your take on this. Though bigger cities offer more than Lafayette, people with family’s and smaller budgets can’t afford to live in bigger cities.
Shaq lived in river ranch.
Yep! I used to see him at the gym all the time
Only thing lake Charles has is casinos really. If you like a variety of grocery stores, activities and restaurants then Lafayette
Thanks for sharing your take on it.
Lafayette for sure!
New Orleans have the Greatest GUMBO!!!! also Some Of The Top Cheifs in the Country
New Orleans does not. lol you need to come to Lafayette and try ours. It’s better 😜
New Orleans gumbo is a different dish than ours in Lafayette.
No they don’t. If you want the greatest food in the world. Come here.
Incorrect
I recommend you google "Economy at a Glance - Lake Charles" and "Economy at a Glance - Lafayette" to get better numbers on these cities. Lake Charles had an unemployment rate of 3.1% in April when this video premiered which was lower than Lafayette's 3.3%. Also, I think the metro numbers would paint a better picture of both places.
Thanks for the tip!
Having been throughout both cities, Lafayette is a much safer place to live and has plenty of things to do. Traffic is much better, fewer homeless, less crime and you can get to anything in about 15 minutes. There have been many times I felt like I was in danger in Baton Rouge. I’ve never felt that way in Lafayette and lived there for 6 years.
I lived in both - Lafayette is more fun, safer, and has better food and better roads...but now I live in Mandeville on the North Shore... also, Baton Rouge separating into 2 parts....people with money are tiered off their taxes are not going where they need to go to.
Thanks for your input
Keep the shorts coming
Thank you so much. Omg I can’t believe I found your videos. We are moving and becoming residents there soon I can’t believe it’s just 40-50 a year. I’m double that and was wondering if I made a right choice. Schools are the main thing I’m looking to find more about.
Awesome! Feel free to text me. I would love to help. 337-316-0479
Tech I just got a job over there. Denatal is getting huge as far as tech and I got hired and moving my family out there the 31st. We are moving from Los Angeles to Lafayette can’t wait
Amazing! Can’t wait to have you guys here
Great video and production. Can’t wait to visit. Do you know how are the government jobs over there? Courthouse work and such?
Thank you. To be honest I’m not quite sure about those types of positions. You got me on that one. Text or call if you need anything
I like the Creole Cuisine in Lafayette but Baton Rouge has a more vibrant night life. I hate the traffic in both cities. In Baton Rouge it's usually backed on I-10, near Port Allen and in Lafayette, the lights sit on red way too long and they do not have a freeway to bypass the traffic. They've also gotten rid of the turning lane on N. University Ave, causing unnecessary traffic jams.
Heard that. I’m glad they are adding roundabouts and improving the roads tho.
Great guide, but it definitely needs timestamps.
Thank you for the suggestion
I’ve lived in Scot and a few other in south Louisiana. I prefer the north like West Monroe area where I’m at now lot better to raise your children and more rule, country slower area
Thanks for sharing!
The murder capital of Louisiana vs. Lafayette. 🙃
Oop 😅
ew. louisana. ew
It’s great. Why do you say ew?
@@DrakeAbshireLivingInLafayette because the state is a shithole
@@DrakeAbshireLivingInLafayette New Orleans should have never been saved
❤❤❤
😊
Baton rouge to much hoods and traffic.Better stay around mall of louisiana area.North baton rouge too dangerous.South baton rouge to South lafayette near ambassdor and kaliste saloom safe and nice.
Good to hear!
