Seated on the west bank of the Mississippi River in Eastern Louisiana, the unincorporated area of Waggaman is named after George Augustus Waggaman, a U.S. Senator in the 1830s. With his wife Camille, he built a huge plantation called Avondale, which was eventually overtaken by the Mississippi River.

Waggaman 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.
