What it’s like to live in South Burbank

University influence shapes South Burbank, where affordable housing near Louisiana State University creates diverse community with academic energy. The district sits within reasonable distance to both campus facilities and the developing Nicholson Drive corridor without undergraduate-dominated atmosphere. Though some blocks show varied investment levels, strategic positioning between LSU resources and downtown employment creates ideal convenience for both academic professionals and students seeking reasonable housing with genuine separation between educational environments and living spaces beyond purely campus-adjacent options often facing extreme seasonal occupancy fluctuations.

So you wanna be a Baton Rougian? Well, you’re in good company! Not only is Baton Rouge the capital and second-largest city in Louisiana, it is also one of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in the U.S. and was recently ranked among the “Top 10 Places for Young Adults” by Portfolio Magazine. And we all know how picky Portfolio Magazine can be. So instead of throwing ‘bows and pulling out the brass knuckles to horde off potential apartment stealers, just peruse our helpful tips to find the quintessential Baton Rouge apartment. You’ll be cooking up an authentic pot of Cajun goodness in your quaint kitchen in no time.

Tips on Renting:

Look for Good Deals : The city is growing at a fantastic pace, and lucky for you, new construction and building projects are managing to keep up. This means that finding an apartment shouldn’t be too daunting of a task, and since there are plenty to choose from, many complexes are waiving application fees or offering specials. Don’t be afraid to name your price – the worst they can say is no.

Beat the Heat : You may be aware that Baton Rouge is located in the southern part of the United States. You may also be aware that the south can get hot. And I mean, hot. Baton Rouge is classified as a humid, subtropical climate. In layman’s terms, this means mild winters (woohoo!) and hot, humid summers (boo). Having air conditioning in your apartment is a huge benefit. Having a pool at your apartment is an even huger benefit.

Won’t You Be My Neighbor?

Ready to start narrowing down the zip codes? Here’s a brief outline of some of the most promising (or most avoidable) locations to hang your southern hat.

Downtown: Although the downtown area is a popular destination for nightlife and entertainment, not many people actually live here. Construction on condominiums in this area is starting to pick up, but the rent can get a little pricey.

Spanish Town: One of the oldest neighborhoods in Baton Rouge, it’s also one of the hippest places to live. Home to a diverse population of free thinkers, Spanish Town also hosts the largest Mardi Gras parade in the city each year, so you know these residents like to get down.

Mid City: Known as an “artsy” neighborhood, an eclectic group of people call this place home. Due to several urban renewal projects, Mid City has generated an increased amount of interest of late and is an up-and-coming area of Baton Rouge.

LSU: Baton Rouge is home to the beloved Louisiana State University, who’s students all reside in the LSU / Lakeshore area. Although the bars and restaurants are hopping and the lakeshore itself offers many exercise options (walking, running and biking), the population is predominantly young college kids…so take that however you’d like.

Navigating Baton Rouge:

Getting accustomed to the Capital Area’s notorious congestion and traffic woes might be one of the hardest parts of living in this bustling city. Baton Rouge ranked 33rd (1 being the worst) in a 2008 INRIX study of the most congested cities, but it actually “earned” the second-highest ranking in terms of ratio of population to congestion. In summary, prepare to spend a lot of time sitting in your car. Most of the traffic problems are probably due to the fact that 99% of residents drive a personal car to work. Public transportation is hard to find in Baton Rouge, apart from the Capital Area Transit System (CATS), which is helpful if you’re traveling along bus routes. One of the most helpful hints we can give you on your apartment search is to consider your commute time to work. Most of the traffic is heading west in the morning (into downtown), while evening commuting nightmares would occur when heading east. So living close to your place of business could be the best decision you ever made! Besides using our website, of course.

We wish you the best of luck wherever you are on your apartment hunting journey, may the real estate force be with you!
