Current Resident: The Garden District is great! I’ve lived here for 30 years. The boundaries on this website are incorrect. The Garden District of Baton Rouge is an established neighborhood consisting of 3 subdivisions—Roselyn’s Terrace, Drehr Place, and the first filing of Kleinert Terrace whose residents banded together 45 years ago to form the District. All three subdivisions are on the National Register of Historic Places. The Garden Disttict of Baton Rouge has been designated as a “Great American Neighborhood” by the American Planning Association. There is an active civic association with frequent social events and off duty police patrols. Crime is low compared to suburban areas and there are 5 blue-ribbon schools within walking distance. If you like biking and walking and want to feel connected to your community this is the place to be!... Read 2 reviews

Current Resident: The Perkins Rowe area is in my opinion the most modern and entertaining area in Baton Rouge. There are plenty of fast food places and stores around, but what's even more worth being in this area are the parks and movie theaters. Many people come through here to find something fun to do especially during quarantine.... Read 85 reviews

Current Resident: It's A Good Place To Grow Up And To Live. It's a long Drive anywhere in traffic around 5:00pm and a few hours to get to many Major National and local attraction's . and you will see the whole place is easy to get around. It's a Circle and the center of the City is Florida boulevard it runs east and west. Airline highway runs north and south. We are loaded with all types of retail outlets. For entertainment we have a wonderful restored downtown. Many Top Night Spots. The Mall of Louisiana, If you have a family Quarters or the Main Event. I personally think the Drury hotel on Essen Ln. Is the best feature of the City. The amenities are of the very best that I have seen anywhere ever especially for the price. Outstanding, My favorite place to be.... Read 52 reviews

Current Resident: I have lived in the Broadmoor/Sherwood area for 14 years. The neighborhood has been a peaceful place to live and our neighbors are very friendly. I had never had any major problems with the neighborhood. The streets, however, in some areas like Goodwood Blvd and Sherwood Forest Blvd are in rough condition. It is not pleasant driving through these streets.... Read 31 reviews

Current Resident: I moved downtown about 6 months ago and I love it. Almost feels like your on vacation everyday, I guess due to living right by the casino, museum, River walk, the river tours and of course live after 5 is right out the door. I live at the Maritime One Apartments which I consider to be the best kept secret in Baton Rouge. Now I do see a lot of homeless people sleeping on the side walks and walking around. I feel bad for them really but I’m a little nervous about them. Although they have never done anything to cause me to worry... Read 1 review
