Louisiana State University Shreveport is located at the southern edge of the neighborhood, and a national wildlife refuge is only minutes away. When asked what makes East Shreveport special, Realtor Emily Hays with Osborn Hays Real Estate says, “It’s the neighborhood itself. This is an established area with older homes. People play with their dogs outside, and there are good school districts.” She continues, “It’s often overlooked since it’s not a gated community. But it’s centrally located, and a great option for people coming to the area.”
