Deville is a two-stoplight community outside of Alexandria
Deville has two stoplights and hundreds of acres of forests and farmland. This rural community of just over 1,200 residents sits deep in the country outskirts of Rapides Parish, between quiet bayous and unhurried state highways. Residents enjoy privacy on sizable, woodsy lots and housing values just under the Alexandria metro area. The community's commercial infrastructure includes a few locally owned restaurants, a gas station and a post office—which many locals prefer. It's about 20 miles outside the city, offering access to conveniences while away from noise.
Large properties with modern farmhouses and Acadian homes
Deville's draw is its land, and many active listings are undeveloped private plots. They mainly measure at least an acre, but several properties cover over 20 acres. The community's winding backroads steer past small pastures with grazing animals, wide-open green spaces and gravel driveways that lead to various homes. Many homes aren't visible from the street, tucked back into dense groups of towering pines and maples. Buyers will find a mix of manufactured, ranch-style and Acadian homes built across the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Deville Estates, a small subdivision of recently built homes, features a few modern Acadian homes and farmhouses. Homes sell from $90,000 to $400,000 for manufactured and ranch-style houses and $400,000 to $560,000 for new builds.
Deville Donuts and combination platters at Rio Rojo Mexican Restaurant
Deville is almost entirely residential, with only a few restaurants and a gas station along Louisiana Highway 115. Deville Donuts opens at 4:45 a.m. daily, offering coffee, ice cream, soft drinks and various donut options, from glazed to apple bear claws. The donut shop also has a drive-through. Rio Rojo Mexican Restaurant sits next to Deville Donuts and serves staples like arroz con pollo, street tacos and Mexican tortas. Deville Dairy Corner offers burgers, chicken strip baskets and ice cream sundaes. Dollar General and Holloway General Store, about 6 miles away, offer grocery essentials, while big-box grocery stores are in Alexandria. A Walmart Neighborhood Market is about 17 miles away.

Deville sits near Open Bayou and Big Saline Bayou
Deville Veterans Memorial Park is one of the community's only public green spaces. It offers small grassy areas, a lit walking path and a central pavilion with a bench. The park sits next to the Deville Volunteer Fire Department. The Buckeye Recreation Complex is about 4 miles outside Deville, just behind Buckeye High School. It features several baseball fields and a small playground for the kids. Many locals enjoy boating and fishing on the quiet waters of nearby Open Bayou and Big Saline Bayou. Grand Cote National Wildlife Refuge, about 20 miles away, and Spring Bayou State Wildlife Management Area, about 40 miles away, also offer outdoor recreation.
Heading into Alexandria

Louisiana Highway 28 runs through Holloway, about 6 miles away. The nearest hospitals are in Alexandria, and Rapides Regional Medical Center is downtown. Alexandria International Airport is 29 miles west of Deville. Deville's CAP Index crime score is 1 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.
