Heard today they are moving us to Baton Rouge. We are probably going to look in the Ascenscion (spelling) parish.

The Juban Interchange is in full operation, and the Juban Interchange has brought many opportunities to Denham Springs. We are getting the 2nd largest Bass Pro building in the United States (62,000 square feet, which will include Louisiana's largest aquarium and the 12,000 square foot Islamorada Seafood Restaurant, Juban Crossing Mall, which will be the largest mall in the State of Louisiana, no joke!! The interchange has also brought three new condominium developments & five new large scale home developments, costing a total of $310 million. The Mall will also have 1,320 pre-build home sites, and 16,000 square feet of business space, not to mention the 65,200 square feet of shopping, restaurants, and hotel depots!! If you are looking for a new home in the newly populated Greater Baton Rouge Area, I would suggest looking into land or housing in Denham Springs Louisiana, 70726.
Livingston has good public schools, but they aren't first in the state. In the latest district rankings, Livingston was 5th.

Teak, Ascension has Cabella's which will be much bigger than Bass Pro. We have relatives who live in Denham and I hate the drive over to visit and the "feel" of the city. There's something "different" about it. Personally, I wouldn't want the hassle of a commute from either Livingston or Ascension parish. Angie has a child with special educational needs. I think that will probably determine more than anything what's the best fit for her family.

there are some suburbs of new orleans that have very good school systems (such as plaqumines parish). But if you are planning to live in new orleans then private schools are a must! Just like any large city you have to search around for the good areas, with the good schools.
