I would not recommend living in the Gardere area. It's area that has been having an increase in crime rate over the past couple of years. One Perkins place is a relatively cheap townhouse complex that is pretty much on the OLOL campus. I would also recommend Chateau Dijon apartment complex which is about a mile away from the hospital. Another nice apartment complex is Mansions in the Park on Perkins. I hope this helps some. If anyone knows of any nice, reasonably priced places to live in New Orleans, please let me know. Congrats to all
and i bet i know who this is.......my fellow ICU co-worker.
housing will be expensive anywhere around the baton rouge area (yet still not as expensive as other areas of the country). i live in denham springs which is about 15 minutes from baton rouge, and i'm sure that there are places to rent. prairieville and gonzales are also good areas to look for housing for less than what you'd find in the baton rouge area.
congrats to everyone who got accepted and hopefully i'll be leaving the good ole state of louisiana as early as january to leave for anesthesia school as well!
