I guess I missed this one.
I have to throw Assumption Parish in the hat. While I was growing up we had a camp in Belle River. After I got out of college I was working in the refineries on the river in Baton Rouge and stayed at the camp in Belle River. To make a long story short, met a girl from Pierre Part and have never left.
TO be honest I dont think I would want to liver anywhere else.
Some of the reasons.
Small town with little crime.
Great elementary and primary schools.
Great fresh water fishing in my back yard.
Far enough from the coast to not have to worry about storm surge.
1hr 15min to Cocodrie, Dularge, Point a Chene, some for the best salt water fishing in the state.
30 minutes to Bayou Black. Great fresh water fishing.
2 hours to Grand Isle for offshore fishing.
15 minute car ride and 20 minute boat ride to Attakapas management area. Good duck and deer hunting.
30 minute car ride and 45 minute boat ride to both wax lake outlet (duck hunting) and Atchafalaya delta(deer Hunting)
45 minutes to Gonzales, Baton Rouge, Houma. All of the shopping and work you need.
1hr 15min to New Orleans airport to get you anywhere in the world. I have no other use for New Orleans.
