Port Allen is a quiet little suburb in West Baton Rouge parish. It is quite convenient to most things and the state capital of Baton Rouge. Living here, one gets the peacefulness of the quiet farm style life with all the perks of the big city. It is lacking however in parks/recreational type things making outdoor life a little more difficult.
Port Allen is a great small community. With locally owned grocery stores and restaurants, you receive the full experience of a small home town!
What I like about Port Allen? Port Allen is a very friendly and nice city to live. All the the residents know each other ,so you always feel like family. Everybody is willing to help their neighbors in need especially when their is national disaster. Their is always good fun and plenty of fun activities for all ages. The holidays are the most memorable Christmas 🎄 display of the lights, pictures with Santa , and hot chocalate. Easter their is always an Easter egg hunt at the community center for the kids, Fourth of July their is always fireworks and live music for all ages. So , if you are looking for some good food and southern style friendliness the next time you pass through the city of Port Allen stop and be treated like you are family .
