The cost down in Cameron Parish is due to the new building codes.
You have to have it designed and stamped by a civil engineer.

Where the ground is harder and water table is lower, you can probably get away with half the price.

My little sister paid $48K for the foundation for her double wide.
That included the cement slab and engineering costs.

If you didn't complete the job in 6 months, another engineering stamp was required, just in case the codes changed.
