Zachary has a big claim to fame when it comes to sports. Doug Williams, a famous football quarterback who was the Super Bowl XXII MVP, was born in this Louisiana town.

Just under 17 miles north of Baton Rouge, Zachary, in many ways, is a quintessential Louisiana city, with a whole lot to offer. Considered to be one of the best towns to live in the state, Zachary showcases convenience. You don't have to go far from your home if you need a drink, break your leg, or want to roll around on grass. Perhaps that's why the population of 14,960 is rising. Come to Zachary, toss a football and break a leg (the show business, have fun kind of "break a leg").

Moving to Zachary

You can't just sit around all day eating Cajun cuisine and expect a new pad to be delivered to your table. You have to go out and explore rental homes in Zachary. While you may find that searching for a rental has its roadblocks, you will realize that -- just like the folks in town -- the market is quite hospitable. With that established, you still have to learn some stuff about Zachary's market before your arrival.

Should You Buy?

Well, this is a yes and a no. Yes, if you plan to reside here for many years, as Zachary showcases one of Louisiana's best real estate markets. If you do not know where you plan to be next autumn, then the answer is no. Renting provides flexibility and the chance to test out a neighborhood.

Do You Fancy Houses?

Getting a house rental will be easiest, as detached houses in Zachary account for over 78 percent of homes. Renting a house on McHugh Road, for instance, is as quick and fun as saying jambalaya. Mobile homes are the next most-common type. Do realize that you can locate and get apartment rentals, but it may be a bit harder than saying jambalaya. Advice: search by size, not housing type, to view a good amount of suitable homes.

When Will You Arrive?

If you are flexible, look for places to live in Zachary between April and May to avoid the humid and hot weather. The next best time to look is November and December. While the market is more competitive here than most Louisiana towns, moving shouldn't take more than 30 to 40 days from start to finish.

Are You Prepared to Close the Deal?

Have one month's rent ready to give the landlord as well as a deposit. Most landlords in Zachary run a credit check as well. If you are competing for an awesome pad, showing up with a credit score and a few references can make you seem more trustworthy.

Zachary Neighborhoods and Communities

Occupying 23.8 square miles, Zachary is not small, and you'll quickly discover that some areas are more densely populated than others. Boasting some of the best school ratings in the state and a low crime rate, Zachary, in any neighborhood, is great. The question comes down to whether you want convenience or space.

Baker: To the south of Zachary, Baker features lots of housing and green space. Get a one-bedroom apartment or a five-bedroom house. Harding Park, a few shopping centers and Ben's Cafe are highlights of the neighborhood. Living in Baker requires a car for longer trips, while walking is possible for a few things.

City Center: A medical center, retail businesses and ample eateries make City Center the liveliest neighborhood in Zachary. Have a cup of coffee at Cafe Phoenicia, run errands on Main Street and dine at Church's Chicken. Walking is possible for many things here, but a car is highly recommended if you plan to go outside the neighborhood.

McHugh: Featuring all sorts of homes, McHugh also boasts Copper Mill Golf Club and Fennwood Hills Golf Club. The Zachary Branch Library is here too. You'll need a car for this west-side hood, unless you hang out around Church Street all the time.

Port Hudson: In the far northwest, this area is made up of mostly scattered houses. If you want space, this is the spot. Have a car or you'll be stranded.

Plank Road / Port Hudson-Pride Road: In the far northeast, this neighborhood is also quite scattered, but that could change with time. Again, get a car or be left sticking your thumb up for a ride.

Living in Zachary

Doug Williams achieved greatness, and you can too. Or at least you can head to Fennwood Hills Country Club and try to get a hole in one. The town of Zachary does love sports, but the culture goes deeper. If you really want to taste the local scene, skip the fast-food chains on Main Street and head straight to Chubby's Pizza and Grill. After dining, have a drink at Sammy's Grill. When you get tired, go home and snooze in the comfort of knowing you are living in one of best areas near Baton Rouge. If you ever get bored, don't hesitate to hop down to the capital city and visit the Baton Rouge Zoo, catch a football game at Tiger Stadium, or check out the Shaw Center for the Arts. The best part? You never have to leave Zachary if you don't want; the place is prepared for whatever you need.
