Anyone else love living in Destrehan?
Not sure if this has been asked before, but We have two kids and Average temperature is around 71--F, so it's warm year-round. The unemployment rate is 6.7%, which is concerning. Crime rate is something to consider -Destrehan sits at 235.7 per 100K. Household incomes average around $100,189 in Destrehan. Homes are going for about $303,400 on average. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The weather takes some getting used to. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.
Pros:
- Friendly people
- Nice parks and trails
- Growing food scene
- Active local events
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Traffic can be terrible
- Limited public transit
- Sprawl everywhere
