Why Live in Central

Located approximately 15 miles from Baton Rouge, Central, LA is a suburban city known for its highly rated Central Community School System, which ranks as the fifth-best school district in Louisiana. The city, which incorporated in 2005 to manage its own schools, features a mix of newer subdivisions and older homes, with many residences being single-family homes. Newer homes are often found in planned developments, while older brick ranch-style homes from the 1970s and '80s are situated on larger plots.
