Rating 3.98 out of 5 47 reviews
it is a great place to live with many affordable housing in the area. It is super close to elmwood, Walmart and many gas stations. It is very safe and feel likes home. Ive lived there for over 4 years and haven't not felt safe. Many great things about their being a levee as well.
I've been living in River Ridge my whole life and I couldn't see myself living in any other suburb in Louisiana. Overall the city is safe and many places to shop and eat.
River Ridge is the best place to raise kids in the suburbs of New Orleans. Little Farms playground has given me life long friends. I never had to worry about something bad happening to me as I ran around while growing up.
