I was scrolling through the Internet a few days ago when I stumbled across a video from earlier in the year 2023 discussing the places you shouldn't move if you're moving to Louisiana.

The video starts by discussing the good food, music, and scenery. Then, it goes directly into talking about how living in the deep South there are major issues with health, poverty, and crime.

YouTuber Nick Johnson takes captivating journeys across America, weaving tales of culture, lifestyle, and exploration. In one of his many videos, Johnson stumbled to Louisiana where he ranked places in Louisiana you should NEVER move to.

Louisiana! Named after King Louis XIV of France. This state is best known for its Mardi Gras and Jazz Music- as well as its beautiful blend of Creole and Cajun cultures. If you like interesting food and friendly people, you’d love it here. Although this place is in the deep south, so there are lots of issues with health, poverty and crime. While a lot of this state is really neat, the fact is, lots of places here are in a bad place right now.
