Baton Rouge Louisiana

The capital city of the Cajuns' state is Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Baton Rouge is located in the southeast section of Louisiana. Baton Rouge is approximately 80 miles to the northwest of New Orleans, 55 miles to the east of Lafayette, and 260 miles to the southeast of Shreveport. While Baton Rouge is just outside of Acadiana (the 22 parishes settled by the Acadians), the Cajun influence on the city is evident.

Baton Rouge History- We will discuss the history of our city. From its settlement by local indian tribes, the discovery by Spanish explorers, and the eventual rise to a state capital in the United States.

Things To Do In Baton Rouge- We have many things to do in our city. If you are a tourist visiting us, we will give you enough ideas to keep you busy for at least a few days.

Colleges In Baton Rouge- Thankfully, the capital of Louisiana has several outstanding colleges and universities. If you are seeking a higher education, or perhaps just want to enjoy some of the greatest college football in the world, you will find everything you need in Baton Rouge.

Schools In Baton Rouge- The public education system in the state capital may be the worst in the country. We will explore these problems, and give you several private school options to consider.

Employers In Baton Rouge- Unless you are rich (perhaps you have made millions online lol), you will need a job here. We will discuss the major employers in "Red Stick", and the general business climate.

Baton Rouge Demographics- The state capital has grown tremendously since the hurricanes. We will explore its population, and the racial tensions that exist.

Map Of Baton Rouge- Driving in our city is not fun. If you're going to dodge the traffic here, you need a general idea of where you are heading. Our map will give you a head start.

Fishing In Baton Rouge- The capital city may not be the epicenter of fishing in Louisiana, but we do have a few places to give it a try. Many anglers also use our city as a base to begin their fishing adventures in "Sportsman's Paradise".

Restaurants In Baton Rouge- We may not have restaurants with the history of New Orleans', but we do have some great places to eat. If you want to try some truly great Cajun food, we will tell you where to go.

Baton Rouge Hotels- One thing that the city has plenty of is hotels. Whether you want to spend $30 a night or $200, we will tell you where to go.

Baton Rouge Housing- The cost of housing in the capital has risen fairly dramatically since the hurricanes. You can still find affordable housing, but you need an idea on where to start. If you're not careful, you could easily end up in "the hood". We want to keep you out of that.

Baton Rouge Lawyers- We hate them unless we need them, so you might as well get to know about a few attorneys in our city. As with all modern cities, we have plenty of lawyers to go around.

Baton Rouge Hospitals- We have some of the leading hospitals in the country. If you have concerns about cancer, the capital city has one of the best cancer research hospitals in the U.S.
