A BTR Move
Are you looking for a city with Pinterest-worthy neighborhoods, a below-average cost of living, and an above-average sense of belonging? Move to Baton Rouge.
A Neighborhood for Every Vibe
Baton Rouge is not a one-size-fits-all town. We've got everything from new construction and family-focused neighborhoods to 100-year-old bungalows on parade routes to flashy downtown studio apartments.
Big City Resources; Small Town Charm
Baton Rouge perfectly marries the abundant resources found in larger cities with the extra support of a supportive community, from our global employers to award-winning hospital systems to the best little mom-and-pop restaurants and quirky shops.
Make the Most of Your Paycheck
With a lower cost of living and higher median income than the national average, you will get more out of every paycheck. Even date nights here are more affordable. A date night in Louisiana is around $70 less than the national average.

...that continually captivates my heart. This city is welcoming and warm and offers an unmatched blend of cultural festivities, artistic rendezvous, and culinary delights.

It’s a unique city, full of celebration, sports, culture, music, food, business opportunities, and more.
