Living & Working in Lafayette

WHO IS A RESIDENT?

Here in Cajun Country, everyone is welcome. You can become a resident or a “Cajun” simply by dancing the two-step or peeling a crawfish. Residential housing in Lafayette Parish is available in all price ranges, neighborhood types and ages. From historic homes to newer, planned communities and apartment complexes, Lafayette has a place for both families and singles. The quaint Saint Streets neighborhood, near the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, offers older homes with a bit of Southern charm, while the planned neighborhood developments, like River Ranch, Sugarmill Pond and Olde Towne at Millcreek, are examples of communities with built-in amenities like spas, restaurants, shops and lofts to service residents.

Several other planned communities, some complete with golf courses, are also in the works here, giving residents plenty of options.

Lafayette also offers many options for apartment living, made up of studio units and one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom units in all price ranges. Whether you enjoy fast-paced urban living or a quieter country setting, there is a neighborhood for you.

Traditional Neighborhood Developments

Traditional Neighborhood Developments (TNDs) incorporate a variety of land uses and house types in a defined area. Its development process combines early twentieth century planning principals with the socially responsible policies of the twenty-first century. Together, this comprehensive planning system creates communities that accommodate educational facilities, civic buildings and commercial establishments, all located within walking distance of private homes.

A hallmark of TNDs is that they are planned to be pedestrian-friendly, rather than automobile-friendly. A unique network of paths, streets and lanes provides residents the option of walking, biking or driving to real destinations within their neighborhood. This same transportation network functions to calm and disperse traffic in a responsible and efficient manner.

In TNDs, both public and private spaces are given equal importance and attention, creating a community with the remarkable ability to cater to a variety of residents and business owners.

Examples of TNDs:

- Olde Towne at Millcreek, Lafayette oldetowneatmillcreek.com

- River Ranch, Lafayette riverranchdevelopment.com

- Sugar Mill Pond, Youngsville sugarmillpond.com
