Top neighborhoods in New Orleans

  • Audubon

    What it’s like to live in Audubon

    Majestic oak trees line the streets of Audubon, where this Uptown New Orleans neighborhood surrounds both Audubon Park and Tulane University. The district features distinctive architecture from Greek Revival mansions to Craftsman bungalows, with many larger homes divided into spacious apartments with period details unavailable in newer construction. For academic professionals and families prioritizing both educational access and natural beauty, Audubon delivers New Orleans' finest combination of prestigious address, walkable amenities, and park proximity – though rental rates reflect these premium attributes.

    French Quarter

    What it’s like to live in French Quarter

    Beyond tourist experiences, long-term French Quarter renters discover the neighborhood's village-like atmosphere once the day visitors depart. Historic apartments above storefronts offer architectural details impossible to replicate in modern construction, from wrought-iron balconies to original cypress beams. Unlike most urban settings, you'll find surprisingly peaceful courtyards hidden behind unassuming facades, creating private outdoor living rare in city centers. Many buildings include roof access with Mississippi River views perfect for sunset watching. When morning arrives, you'll appreciate walking distance to both French Market coffee stands and corporate offices in the Central Business District, eliminating commuting stress while maintaining immersion in New Orleans' most distinctive neighborhood.
