Review of Baton Rouge, Louisiana


you can do a LOT better than here
Star Rating - 6/14/2011
Baton Rouge is a joke I relocated here from Milwaukee about 18 monts ago and am seriously thinking about moving back. This place is NOTHING like it used to be. The traffic here is terrible for its size, crime is atrocious, and being an outsider(out of towner) the job market is a joke except for the locals. The people are meh, though some are friendly and will wave and blow at you, others are pretty rachet, as if I was back in Milwaukee. Outside of the corporated limits of Baton Rouge, it is o.k. but once you pass that sign it is like a warzone here. The entire city screams POVERTY and filthiness. People here a content with just getting by which is sad. I have attempted to find positives about here not having to shovel snow is one, and the cuisine is another outside of that and the Souths racial history(which is still here people are still stuck in slave mode by accepting any ol thing that comes their way)there is not much to harp on about this dreaded busted place. Milwaukee ain't all gravy but it definitely isnt as bad as it is here.

I have lived here 43 years and can't wait to retire and leave. It is a filthy place and the crime is terrible. No one in charge seems to care.
