Hello, Crime rate is something to consider — Shreveport sits at 779.5 per 100K. Average temperature is around 68°F, so the weather is moderate. Poverty rate is 18.4%, which is higher than I expected. With a population of 183K, Shreveport is a mid-size city. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Anyone in a similar situation? There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. It's changing fast — some good, some not so much. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
