Bogalusa Reviews
Rating 2.56 out of 5 25 reviews
Bogalusa, Louisiana is a beautiful city with lots of history. Unfortunately, it has gone extremely downhill. The city is filled with drugs and gangs, especially in the neighborhood park. There is always drug deals happening here and used heroin needles have been found in the sand pits many times. There are not many places to shop or work and if you do apply for a job, you usually will not get it because everyone in the city works at one of the few places. The public school in the area is filled with awful teachers who hate their students and their jobs and most students spend their days doing drugs in the school bathrooms or fighting. Although this city has many downsides, it is very affordable and a small town to settle down.
My hometown. Where I grew up, and learned about life. Love the people. I always feel that there is a helping hand. Despite the violence increasing quite a bit throughout the years, the majority of people are always willing to lend a helping hand.
Bogalusa is a small town about an hour away from the hustle and busy city of New Orleans. The town has friendly people, great festivals, and amazing southern cuisine.
