Culture Nature Lake Shopping Transportation Louisiana

If you’re looking for a great place to find an apartment, then Shreveport may be just the place for you. When you live here, you experience true southern Louisiana culture. While it may be a couple of hours' distance from New Orleans, it’s all about the bayou. What makes this city unique is that the close proximity to the Texas border blends southern charm and western culture together.

Immersing yourself in the area’s natural surroundings is easy at Cypress Black Bayou Park, where you can enjoy a day on the water and hanging out with friends. Another great green space is Caddo Park, which has a large lake that houses over 70 types of fish.

The city is near one of the best outlet malls in the state. The Outlets at Louisiana Boardwalk has over 70 retailers and fantastic restaurants. Line Avenue Shopping District is another popular area with five miles of specialty shops and boutiques.

Louisiana is all about the southern food and Louisiana Creole cuisine – and Crawdaddy’s Kitchen is the perfect place for both! Nightlife near Shreveport apartments includes Riverside Warehouse and the Straycat for cheap drinks. To travel in and around the city, locals can either commute by car or the SporTran. Residents here are close to a number of major roadways, including Interstate 20, Interstate 49, and Interstate 220, as well as the city regional airport.
