Pineville LA - 8/13/2016
Pineville-Alexandria is a metro area of roughly 75K, which feels smaller than it actually is. The people and relative lack of culture and stores you'd normally find in similar-sized towns make it seem small. I've never been to an area this size without a stand alone Starbucks store, for instance- but Pine/Alex somehow pulls it off! No Waffle House? No problem apparently for Pine/Alex.

So it you can go without much cultural stuff, and likely without many

Nothing to do and no jobs - 1/25/2011
I have lived in this area for over half of my life. Other than the zoo, a small mall, a movie theater, and a bowling alley, there is nothing to do! You have to drive 4 hours away to find something even remotely interesting. Jobs? What jobs? In the past 2 years I've only been able to find 1 job and it was at Dollar General. This town has no growth, no jobs, no recreation, and a terrible teacher to student ratio.
As soon as taxes are done we are
