You gave me your family history and then said that it is most definitely not for everyone...which I already stated. The OP will love it or hate it.

I can understand that, I think it's all relative to what we're used to. If I had to move to Baton Rouge or anywhere different from N.O. I would be uncomfortable too until I got used to everything. I can see the diff. coming from BR. Personally I couldn't live in Louisiana if I were anywhere but NOLA, me. |

I visited NO several times. I loved it. Just didnt experience the tourist area's. Actually explored every bit of it (at least what you can in a week). Same problems in any other large metro area city. We even wandered into the more rural area's of the state. Very fascinating.
