re: Which SEC town offers the best quality of life?

Last would be BR. I would hate to raise kids in BR.

Once you hit BR, just stay south and you'll be fine. South of I-12 and south of I-10 after the 10/12 split.

There are very good Private HS's in BR and many very nice areas, just stay South young man. (Except for "Corporate Blvd-Town Center" area which IS North of I-10, but only a short distance)

If you venture off course, the farther North you go, the scarier it gets.

That being said, it's still way behind in the rankings of SEC towns. Not as bad as the general perception, but still not in top half of the 14 SEC towns for overall quality of life. The demographics of the city have totally changed since Hurricane Katrina and have made it a much less desirable place to live overall.

Unless you were born/raised here and attended L.S.U., (And are still an L.S.U. fanatic) there is no real reason to be here. Many L.S.U. Grads can't find good jobs, so they move to Houston or Dallas.

Did I mention, stay SOUTH.....
