Apartments for Rent in Baton Rouge, LA

Named by French explorers as the “Red Stick City,” Baton Rouge is Louisiana’s capital city bursting with history and culture. A beautiful fusion of Cajun and Creole culture molds an extraordinary experience throughout this riverfront city.

The Louisiana State Capitol building dominates the landscape of downtown Baton Rouge, a gargantuan tower built in classic 1930s art deco style. Next door, the historic Spanish Town is a popular community for artists and bohemian types, with beautifully preserved homes and tree-shaded streets giving the impression of a charming small town.

While Baton Rouge is home to several colleges, Louisiana State University is the hub of the city. Tiger football is the undisputed center of attention throughout the fall. The famous Tiger Walk, tailgating, and raucous home games at Tiger Stadium, also known as Death Valley, is an experience thousands enjoy every season.

The area surrounding the LSU campus is loaded with nightlife and entertainment options catering to the student body. Staying true to its colorful emulsion of culture, Baton Rouge is filled with Creole and Cajun eateries but also offers other cuisines. Try a classic Louisiana Po’ boy and fried seafood at Poor Boy Lloyd’s. Most of the activity in town is clustered together near the Mississippi River, and the areas farther east get more subdued and slower-paced, providing tranquil home environments. Whether you’re a student looking for an apartment close to campus or a family looking for a home in a southern town, Baton Rouge is ideal.
