Why Live in Metairie

Metairie, Louisiana, is the largest community in Jefferson Parish, located on the Southshore of Lake Pontchartrain. Developed in the early 20th century, Metairie offers a quieter, family-oriented alternative to New Orleans. With a population of approximately 143,000, it features a mix of affluent neighborhoods, diverse shopping and dining options, and highly rated schools. The housing market in Metairie has evolved significantly since Hurricane Katrina, with many homes being rebuilt larger, especially in areas like Country Club Estates. Home styles vary widely, from stately Colonial Revivals and Craftsman cottages in Old Metairie to neoclassical manors and midcentury designs across the suburb. The Jefferson Parish School District, the largest in Louisiana, serves over 46,800 students and includes highly regarded private institutions like Metairie Park Country Day School. Tulane University, located within 5 miles, is a notable higher education option with an A-plus rating.
