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.

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.

What it’s like to live in Milan
Historic affordability defines Milan, where this Uptown-adjacent neighborhood offers similar architectural character at more accessible price points. The district sits strategically positioned between Magazine Street shopping and St. Charles Avenue streetcar access, creating ideal convenience without corresponding Garden District premiums. Though some properties show their age with vintage quirks requiring maintenance knowledge beyond typical renter experience, the combination of architectural distinction, walkable amenities, and more reasonable rental rates creates compelling value for households seeking authentic New Orleans experiences beyond tourist-oriented districts. The neighborhood's tree-lined streets create natural beauty unusual for urban environments, while the central positioning provides reasonable access to both universities and downtown employment.
