Pros and Cons of Baton Rouge, LA

Published June 20, 2013

Many of the pros and cons of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, are found around Louisiana State University, known as LSU. The LSU Tigers sports teams, especially football, are followed with a fervor as feverishly pitched as any sports team in the nation. Additionally, the young populace supports a healthy, evolving nightlife and dining scene.

LSU can’t counteract some of the city’s negatives, though, notably its sweltering, sweaty, mosquito-swarmed summer nights, and a lackluster downtown.

Fortunately, for those who like big-city downtowns, New Orleans is only an hour and a half away.
