With its vibrant culture and renowned academic institutions, New Orleans stands out as a top destination for college students and recent graduates. According to a recent Forbes ranking, New Orleans is among the best cities for higher education. Its rich cultural heritage, academic opportunities, and growing job market create a unique experience for those seeking more than just a degree.
For students attending local universities, such as Tulane University, University of New Orleans, Xavier University, etc., finding the right place to live can be challenging. Many students enjoy the lively energy of downtown New Orleans, but for those looking for a suburban environment that still offers close proximity to campus, there’s good news. At 1st Lake Properties, many of our communities are located just outside the city, offering a balance of comfort and convenience.
In Forbes’ analysis of the best cities for college students, New Orleans stands out for several reasons:
For those who prefer to live just outside the city, our communities in Kenner, Metairie, and River Ridge are just a short drive from local colleges. This allows students to stay close to campus while enjoying a more relaxed residential atmosphere. Whether you’re a student, recent graduate, or early-career professional, our communities provide an ideal mix of comfort and convenience.
Living just outside of New Orleans means you can experience the best the city has to offer while avoiding some of the busier aspects of city life. Our communities are thoughtfully designed, offer great amenities, and provide convenient access to all of New Orleans’ attractions, from local hotspots to career opportunities.
If you’re looking for a place near a local university, our communities offer a variety of options to suit your needs. To see a list of available communities near you, click here!
