Like sausage? Then you'll love LaPlace, the "Andouille Capital of the World," with the Andouille Festival being held each October!
Located west of New Orleans and south of Baton Rouge between the Mississippi River and Lake Pontchartrain, LaPlace (say it the French way please!) began as a farming village in the 18th century during Louisiana's French colonial period. Most of its residents work on the off-shore oil refineries or commute to NOLA or the Red Stick for work. While LaPlace's housing is plentiful and inexpensive, there's not much else in the town, so investing in a car that gets good gas mileage is paramount. If, however, you want to spend every minute of your weekend in a boat fishing on the lake, then by all means pack your bags today! See more
Laplace apartments with garages are sometimes more expensive than other options. However, they may make more financial sense in the long run.
Weather, break-ins, and daily struggles to find a space can take a toll financially and physically. Remember that even cities in mild climates experience issues like salt air, tornadoes, hail, falling branches from storms, and other issues.
It’s also possible to score an auto insurance reduction if you park in a garage. Ask your insurance provider about any deals or discounts that could trim money off the cost of your monthly bill.
Before signing a lease, ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on garage use. It’s important to know if there are enough spaces for tenants and visitors and what happens if the garage is full. If you’re moving into an apartment inside a home, ask about any conditions on its use and if storage is allowed.
