Commuter community between Houma and Thibodaux

Located 9 miles from Downtown Houma, Gray is a commuter town known for its location. "You're very close to Houma and shopping, but still feel like you're in a small hometown," says Robin Harris, a Realtor with CHT Group Real Estate. In addition to location, the housing prices in Gray stand out compared to some nearby communities. Like much of south Louisiana, Gray is at risk for hurricanes and tropical storms. "You are far enough away compared to the towns right on the Gulf, but you still get potential damage," Harris says.
