Brick contemporary homes with spacious lawns
Nearly all properties in Lafourche Crossing are residential homes on streets branching off Highway 1. Most are brick contemporary builds featuring spacious yards, attached garages and paved driveways with enough space to set up basketball hoops. Mobile homes and ranch-style houses with shaded carports line the older residential streets, which offer more tree growth than the lots with new construction. Homes in the area typically sell for $125,000 to $400,000. Across the northeastern side of Bayou Lafourche, the Chatchie Plantation House stands as a historical landmark. Larger plantation-style homes like this one sit well back from the road on rolling green lawns. They don’t enter the market often, but current prices range from $600,000 to $700,000.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
