I was born in Shreveport, but was raised in Ruston and I currently live in Ruston, you could say North Louisiana is basically either an eastern extension of East Texas, a southern extension of Arkansas, a western extension of Mississippi, or even a facsimile of all three, whereas South Louisiana is pretty much its own thing, being distinct from the rest of the South. Great video and good job explaining the differences between North and South Louisiana. :)

[@bitcoinpoker76]

They have always had them around the houma area...

[@melissas4874]

Baton Rouge is North Louisiana for the most part. I grew up in south Louisiana, but my family is all from north Louisiana so I spent a lot of time there growing up and visit there more now that my parents have retired. And the NOLA accent is slightly different than cajun as well as the words they use. You can buy alcohol in north Louisiana if you are in a larger town, but many small town stores in North Louisiana won't even carry alcohol (one store owner told us that nobody in town would buy it from him - they don't want to be seen by their fellow Pentecostals buying alcohol). There are plenty of drive through daiquiri places in towns like Houma, Thibodaux, Metarie, Layette, and the west bank. That's why I say Baton Rouge is not the same as the rest of south Louisiana if you haven't seen many there. The difference is maybe that they aren't solely a drive-thru and you can drink it in the shop or drive through. They put a piece of tape over the opening so it is considered a closed container. And to me North Louisiana is far more religious even if they have less religious holidays (since there aren't as many Catholics).

[@jeffreybryant4714]

I'm from the bayous, swamps and cane fields (Raceland Louisiana) and to us along the bayous everything above I10 is North Louisiana. Our Cajun accent gets heavier or thicker the further south you go down the bayous. Being born and raised on the bayou (I'm 59) you can usually tell what town or city someone was raised in. Every time that I've been to Lafayette, Baton Rouge or New Orleans I get at least i person asking if I'm from Raceland, Lockport or Larose because they go to Grand Isle or they have friends or relatives along the bayou and i don't sound like I'm from Galiano or Golden Meadow. I liked your video, Thanks.

Yep! I was born in Covington La and my family moved to Grapevine Texas when I was 10. All aunts uncles and cousins still live there. I’m 42 now and I’ve lost my accent after spending the majority of my life in Texas. I was working offshore and a new member on the crew asked me “man where you from?” Trying to avoid going into great detail I just told him Texas (I normally don’t claim Texas) and went on about my business. He said “oh, you look like one of them boys from where I’m from” I then asked where he was from and he said “franklinton Enon up north of Covington” Stopped me dead in my tracks and said “damn that’s where my entire family is from, generations back” I couldn’t believe it, knew where I was from just by lookin at me.

I didn't know if you knew this but Livingston parish is one of the most populated parishes in Louisiana it sits just below Saint Helena parish which is just east of baton rouge. With about $250,000 residents 70% are from Mississippi and mostly Pentecostal in Baptist.

[@erictong3488]

Several daiquiri shops in Livingston Parish have a drive-thru, its not an enclosed building like in the video more like a fast food drive thru but many do more business through the drive thru window than inside. I do think some parts of South Louisiana like the Felicianas, Washington Parish, and the northern parts of Livingston and Tangipahoa have similarities to North Louisiana geographically and culturally. There are even many from Lafayette and New Orleans that claim there is "nothing" Cajun or Creole about Denham Springs, Hammond or Covington though I do feel the influence is very clearly present. I think the Baton Rouge area has the best mix of various Louisiana cultures, and the Alexandria area as well is a cultural crossroads. Natchitoches is an area in North/Central Louisiana that has a South Louisiana feel.

[@larrymcclain8874]

Interestingly, the north part of the state has always been Louisiana, unlike the south central/southwest part and the Florida Parishes. In the north, the French influence changed when the US aquired the Louisiana Purchase, as evidenced by the French place names that remain. What most people don't realize is that there is even a slight cultural difference even in the north part of the state. English planters from VA, NC/SC, and GA settled in the delta (Mississippi River to the Ouachita River), while many Scotch/Irish from Appalachia made the north central/northwest part of the state their home. Many small towns and villages, for instance, in the delta region, have Episcopal churches, but not so much in the north central/northwest part. This cultural difference is definitely seen in Monroe or West Monroe, as there has been for years a slight tension between the two cities. This was given a veiled reference in the play (omitted in the movie) "Steel Magnolias," with a conversation between Shelby and Clairee on which side of the river did Shelby and her new husband plan to live. Even though these differences in the north are slight, the Ouachita River seems to be the dividing line.

Sounds like North Louisiana the German-Anglo Texas settlers set the culture to assimilate into while South Louisiana mostly chose not to impose themselves and are more into gradually assimilating into Dixieland. I mean, all services are in English in SLA even if people claim to speak French.

[@user-zf1kd5qq1t]

Having lived in Louisiana 26 years (20 in NLA and 6 in SLA), Texas isn't the root of the North part of the state at all really. North Louisiana is the Deep South. Very much like Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia culturally, how people act/talk. Texas wasn't even the US or settled by whites when North Louisiana came about. Texas settling came after North Louisiana settling (as for whites) as the country started East and spread west. South Louisiana is not like the deep South (in ways), it's its own thing. Distinct from other areas. Basically North Louisiana is culturally the deep south (english/irish anglo) and South Louisiana is French. As for Texas, North Louisiana came first and shares similarities with only about 80-100 miles extending into Texas. Once you get to Dallas/Houston and west, it loses similariites to North Louisiana.

Ps I'm from Monroe La aka Ouachita Parish I love being from their I'm so Louisiana!!!

[@user-zf1kd5qq1t]

@@dthomas9832 It's because North Louisiana is much less like Texas and much more like the rest of the deep south in Mississippi and Alabama. Especially demographically. Lot of blacks, whites, and no hispanics where Texas has little blacks, lots of Hispanics, and whites.

This was very informative.

Alexandria is Baptist and Pentecostal dominated city New Orleans is Catholic dominated

[@tomneff7030]

North is southern Baptist... South predominantly catholic..

[@sharondallalio4451]

Very True

[@tomneff7030]

@sharondallalio4451 My roots in Louisiana go back to 1848. Having said that...I've lived in Colorado most of my life. But when I go back to visit cousins etc. I Gotta tell you....I ❤️ the False River area around New Roads.And I wad born in South Baton_rouge..your thoughts...

You sound California to me

[@sharondallalio4451]

Thank you, most people comment on my country draw. Thanks for watching the video.

[@louiswhite805]

North Louisianians don't have accents. As to why any self-respecting North Louisianian would like the Dallas Cowboys is beyond good country boy sense. Now, me I've been a Green Bay Packers fan since 1965. And of course you'd ask why; it simple, because there could be no other team!

[@PresGarcia]

North La are definitely more drawn out, maybe not country, but definitely southern

[@sharondallalio4451]

100%, you can hear my North LA accent in the video...drawn out more than the South.

[@louiswhite805]

@sharondallalio4451 if you have an accent, you are an outlier. North Louisiana was pretty much settled by Yankees during the anti-slavery war. You'll find similar speaking folks in Missouri, Minnesota, and California. We speak with a none acented diction. We enunciate words plainly, clearly without accentuating embellishments. We speak only Americans.

[@PresGarcia]

@@louiswhite805Ik ppl who are from all over LA, lots of us have accents, and some Of us have none at all. But the majority of Louisiana definitely has different accents.

[@louiswhite805]

@PresGarcia Well, I'm from Caddo Parish, and I know of no one with an accent. Plus, I have friends and relatives all across North Louisiana and served in the US Army for almost 6 years, with many North Louisianians, and not one of any race, had an accent. Could it be that no accent 🤔 is, in reality, 🤔 an accent?

And you forgot to mention red beans and rice that south Louisiana to LOL, although your documentary is true I just wanted to pick at you lol And I live in baton rouge also in the Shenandoah area

I lived in South Louisiana until I was 29. I am glad I left after I earned my STEM doctorate. Louisiana is headed in the wrong direction in Education and the Sciences. The legislature is too concerned with culture wars to bother about infrastructure, student safety, or education. I’ll give the state a hard pass until this changes.

[@sharondallalio4451]

It's great that you were able to leave and find success elsewhere! Unfortunately, Louisiana is still facing a lot of challenges in terms of infrastructure and education. Thank you for watching!
