New Orleans Overview
Are you searching for an exciting place to live? You’ll never run out of things to see and appreciate in New Orleans! The Crescent City has tons of culture, annual Mardi Gras festivities, stunning natural surroundings — and so much more! The Mississippi River flows through the city and empties into the Gulf of Mexico. The waters of Lake Pontchartrain offer beautiful views! And the city itself is filled with stately homes, historic buildings, world-famous dining options, and great places to explore. Living here means you get to enjoy all that the city has to offer year-round! We’ll go over what to expect and why you should consider looking for New Orleans homes for rent!
What is the history of New Orleans?
Did you know that the city’s roots have French and Spanish ties? The French founded the city way back in 1718, due to its location close to the river, lakes, bays, and bayous for getting around easily. The Spanish took over in the late 1700s and gave the city back to France. But it became part of the U.S. in 1803 as part of the Louisiana Purchase. New Orleans’ waterfront location made it a haven for pirates and smugglers during the 1700s and 1800s. And the city earned a reputation for being a lively, thriving place with Mardi Gras celebrations every year. New Orleans is also where jazz was born in the late 1800s and early 1900s!
How is the weather in New Orleans?
As a bayou city, expect plenty of hot, humid days in summer here. Daytime highs usually climb into the 90s, with lows dropping to the mid-70s. Spring and fall in New Orleans are a bit cooler. Highs are typically in the 70s and 80s. Lows are in the 60 and 50s. How’s winter in the Crescent City? Daytime highs reach the 60s, making it pleasant to get out and explore the area! Lows drop to the mid-40s for most of the winter. New Orleans has some rainy days throughout the year. But it tends to be rainier during summer overall — giving you some relief from the heat!
How do I get around town?
Wondering if you should focus on finding rental homes in New Orleans close to public transportation? If you don’t have a car, you’re in luck! New Orleans is a highly walkable city with several public transportation options. NORTA runs many bus routes throughout the city and surrounding area. There’s also a few streetcar lines available! If you do have a car, you may find it easier to get around the outer areas and suburbs. Need to fly somewhere? The Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport isn’t far from downtown on the western side of town. Amtrak’s Union Passenger Terminal and Greyhound’s New Orleans Bus Station offer other options for traveling outside the city.
What is the New Orleans commute like?
How much time should you plan on spending traveling to and from your job? New Orleans has an average commute time of just 23 minutes. Of course, rush hour commutes tend to take longer. The big roads in the area include I-10 running from northeast to west, I-510 in the eastern part of town, and I-610 on the western side. Several US highways run through the city, including 11, 39, 47, 90, and 996. And the city has parkways and expressways, like Pontchartrain Expressway and Chef Menteur Highway. While looking for homes for rent in New Orleans, note how close they are to major roads if you’ll be driving around.
Why live in New Orleans, LA?
Love live music? How about incredible food? New Orleans has so much to enjoy throughout the seasons as a resident! But that’s not all it offers. The city also has major employers in several industries, including hospitality, manufacturing, energy — and more! And New Orleans has many colleges and universities to consider for higher education, like the University of New Orleans and Tulane University. New Orleans rental homes also put you close to all the action for Mardi Gras, the Wine and Food Experience, the Jazz and Heritage Festival, and other fun events!
What New Orleans landmarks should I see?
There’s a whole bunch of landmarks to visit once you’re settled in here! Visit the Mardi Gras Fountain in Lakeshore for tributes to past celebrations. Head to the Edgar Degas House on Esplanade Avenue to see the famous French impressionist’s home. Interested in the city’s spookier site? Visit Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop — now a bar in a building that dates back to 1722! Explore the city’s historic and elaborate cemeteries, like St. Louis Cemetery No. 1. Stroll through the French Quarter to see the New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum and Cafe Du Monde.
What is there to do around New Orleans?
The city has plenty to do — no matter what you’re interested in! Take a tour of the Garden District to admire sprawling mansions and ornate homes. Visit the Jazz Museum and the Museum of Art for cultural attractions. Play golf or go swimming at Audubon Park. Take a dinner jazz cruise on the Mississippi River! Explore the area’s swamps on a guided kayak tour. Or dine at some of the finest restaurants in the city, like Antoine’s Restaurant in the French Quarter or Commander’s Palace in the Garden District. And, of course, make plans to take part in the city’s yearly Mardi Gras parade and other festivities!
Where is the best place to move in New Orleans?
You can find New Orleans rentals to fit any lifestyle and budget. But which area is right for you? Bywater offers an artsy neighborhood that’s walkable and filled with music venues, dive bars, and art studios. For a trendy neighborhood, there’s the Warehouse District with renovated warehouses and lots of culture! The French Quarter gives you convenient access to tons of activities and attractions. For water views, there’s Lakeview with its local seafood eateries and other amenities. Uptown puts you close to cafes, diners, Audubon Park, streetcars — and tons of other amenities!
