Audubon
Audubon
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 Fairgrounds
Budget-conscious renters find value in Fairgrounds, where historic shotgun doubles and cottages offer authentic New Orleans architectural character without French Quarter prices. The neighborhood's calendar revolves around Jazz Fest, when many renters offset costs by subletting spare rooms to festival-goers (most leases specifically permit this arrangement). Walking distance to both Esplanade Avenue restaurants and City Park attractions eliminates parking challenges during events. Though some properties show elevation differences affecting flood risk, many long-term landlords maintain flood insurance coverage within rental costs—an important consideration when comparing seemingly similar pricing between properties with different protection levels.

Cultural fusion thrives along Magazine Street's antique shops and Creole cafes. Shotgun rentals retain original heart pine floors but lack insulation against Delta humidity.
