Really do your research before moving here!

I am a Chicagoan & I moved to New Orleans for about a year. This city is a nice place to visit or vacation, but not to live (especially if you are from up North). I will admit that SOME of the people here are nice while there are others that try to mimic themselves from a music video, jumped off a rainbow or just plain thuggish. The crime is very high and the nightlife would make Chicago's look like a cream puff! Also, you have to be prepared to pack all of your belongings & etc just in case there is a threat of a hurricane and drive for hours and hours on the expressway to nowhere! Call me stuck up if you want, but after a year there I tucked my tail came back home running. Don't do it!
