I been away from home for 15 years. Eventually, Ill move back. Lafayette definitely has a place in the heart. It has grown alot but not quite there yet.

[@DrakeAbshireLivingInLafayette]

Agreed. We still have a ways to go. But I’m very excited for what the next 5-10 years will bring here

Having been throughout both cities, Lafayette is a much safer place to live and has plenty of things to do. Traffic is much better, fewer homeless, less crime and you can get to anything in about 15 minutes. There have been many times I felt like I was in danger in Baton Rouge. I’ve never felt that way in Lafayette and lived there for 6 years.

I like the Creole Cuisine in Lafayette but Baton Rouge has a more vibrant night life. I hate the traffic in both cities. In Baton Rouge it's usually backed on I-10, near Port Allen and in Lafayette, the lights sit on red way too long and they do not have a freeway to bypass the traffic. They've also gotten rid of the turning lane on N. University Ave, causing unnecessary traffic jams.

Heard that. I’m glad they are adding roundabouts and improving the roads tho.

I live in Baton Rouge, but am moving to St George soon. I prefer the city and the people of Lafayette a lot more than Baton Rouge. The only convenience in Baton Rouge is that you are an hour away from New Orleans.

[@DrakeAbshireLivingInLafayette]

I hope your move goes well! 😊

[@George-hl2xm]

Oh really why not move to New Orleans then

[@floridapmi]

@@George-hl2xm St George is part of Baton Rouge and my business is in Baton Rouge. No way would I live in NOLA, just like to visit it.

I lived in both - Lafayette is more fun, safer, and has better food and better roads...but now I live in Mandeville on the North Shore... also, Baton Rouge separating into 2 parts....people with money are tiered off their taxes are not going where they need to go to.

[@DrakeAbshireLivingInLafayette]

Thanks for your input

I’ve lived in Scot and a few other in south Louisiana. I prefer the north like West Monroe area where I’m at now lot better to raise your children and more rule, country slower area

[@DrakeAbshireLivingInLafayette]
