Louisiana is a great place to live for people of all ages,
however the city known as “Rid Stick” boasts many reasons why it might
claim victory as Louisiana’s best city to retire. For starters,
the cost of living in Baton Rouge is relatively low compared to New
Orleans, yet with a metro area of roughly over 850,000 residents, you
still get that “big city” feel. Keeping costs low is very important for
seniors, especially retirees who tend to live on a fixed monthly
income. And sure, Baton Rouge will always, and should always, preserve
its swamp culture, but in the last decade has emerged a booming
restaurant and bar scene that uniquely blends Louisiana’s Creole and
Cajun traditions with modern influences. Head down to Government
Street, Perkins Road, or College drive for some of the best food in the
state. Watch an LSU football and basketball game, visit Louisiana’s Old
State Capitol building, or even gamble at one of the several casinos in
the area.
