What it’s like to live in Little Woods
Lakefront accessibility defines Little Woods, where New Orleans' eastern neighborhood borders Lake Pontchartrain with its recreation opportunities. The district features more affordable homes with surprising outdoor space unusual for urban settings, while nearby commercial corridors provide practical amenities within easy reach. Though requiring longer downtown commutes than central neighborhoods, many households find the trade-off worthwhile for significantly more living space, lake proximity, and quieter surroundings at competitive rates compared to more tourist-oriented New Orleans districts facing extreme seasonal occupancy fluctuations.
