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.
