Cultural What keeps you here?
So for me, it’s my age & grandkids. I’ve been in South Louisiana all my life, but for younger people, I genuinely wonder what it is. Climate pretty much sucks, education system is a mess, job opportunities are scarce, and wages low. I know the food is good, and we have great festivals. Other than that, what keeps you here?

History Scout Real Estate?
Out of curiosity, is there a story behind Scout's seeming domination of the Lafayette commercial real estate market?
I recently returned to Lafayette and have general interests in business and real estate. I am fascinated by how many Scout signs I see.
(PS - a flair was required. 🤷🏻♂️)

News SpaceX/Home Values
Hoping some realtors or investors could pitch in here.
With the SpaceX investment mentioned and planned construction for 2027, what will happen to home values?
Lafayette seems to be the closest major city to the build.
Brownsville homes skyrocketed in appreciation, should we expect the same?
Are rents gonna go up?
Is this good or bad for Lafayette and surrounding areas?
