Review of Thibodaux, Louisiana


Not the Place I Grew Up
Star Rating - 11/15/2009
Having been born & raised in Thibodaux, Louisiana, it is w/ such sadness that I write how badly I want to move away from here. Since Katrina, there has been a great influx of residents who don't have any respect for their neighbors or for their property. The noise levels, traffic & crime have increased dramatically. I laugh at the political push to advertise Thibodaux as a retirement community. I can't imagine why someone would want to retire here, unless you enjoy enduring music being played so loud from car stereos that it shakes the dishes in your cabinets...or unattended pit bulls barking non-stop...or having your yard used as a trash can for passing kids...or having your home broken in to...or working w/ a city council that makes but does not enforce ordinances.

I beg to differ, Devin. The real problem is you!

Anywhere that you have a growing population of blacks you are going to have problems. They move into the old white neighborhoods and destroy them. It seems like everywhere I go in Thibodaux nowadays it is half black. They are out breeding us 3 to 1. It’s only a matter of time before they turn our beautiful southern homeland into one big ghetto!

Thanks for your honesty Zenda, looking for retirement property, but I'll stay clear of this location...

Thats because you also have Nicholls State University to contribute to the problem. Im up here in Labadieville and what you said is a carbon copy of what goes on here as well. Labadieville is a spill-over from Thibodaux.

I currently live in Thibodaux LA. I had this place; even though, the crime here is not bad...
