Born and raised in Houma and moved away in 1993. While I love coming back to visit family , I can’t wait to leave because there isn’t much to do besides eat.😄 There’s a need for a new family entertainment venue in town. Something like “Surge” that we had drive to Lafayette to visit. A few more cafe’s, cigar bar, and a jazz club would be nice too. Also the Civic Center needs to host more concerts and plays.
0:35 Ayyye Polk street! I lived on that street in 2002-2005 when i was a kid. 6:44 I used to live at the house on the right in 2013. This is East Street. 7:02 if you take a left and go all the way down you reach Senator Circle, i used to live there too from 2014 til Hurricane Ida hit a few years ago & completely destroyed nearly all the housings back there. When i first moved there because i didnt have any friends around I used to walk from the east side through the tunnel to the west to chill with my friend that lived on a street called Morgan Street not too far from where the video ended. It'd mostly be at night so walking back home through that dark, barely lit tunnel at like 1-2 in the morning would be sketchy asf 😂. I actually fell in there once while riding a stingray when i was 12, was my first time going through the tunnel not in a vehicle i didnt really know how much it dipped til i started picking up so much speed and ate it, slid about 15-20 yards and got up to find the entire left side of my body just covered in black dirt and grime💀, f****d my hip up pretty good too but hey, didnt stop me from going to my friends brother's party at Chucky Cheese's later that day tho I fought through it 😂🤣. I lived a lotta places around Houma growing up, im surprised Bayou Dularge isnt included in the video lol. You got the East Side,the Weet Side, Dularge is the South Side. Mostly Bayou but its home, I've moved to the east & west side plenty of times through the 30 years of my life but somehow I always end up back down the bayou. Ngl its pretty peaceful. Only problem is the GODDAMN MOSQUITOES!!! 🤬😤🤣😂 Houma's a good place to live tho its not bad.
Wow only show the 1950's Houma? Unfortunately this drive is filming true but outdated infrastructure. How about Mary Bird Perkins. Cardiovascular Institute of the South leader in the country and the downtown port? The main st boardwalk .How about the 10 million dollar homes off HWY 311, Bayou Black, Waterproof? One many schools that have been rebuilt or renovated. Tunnel blvd? Large car car dealerships in every make with exception of the elite euro's. K&B machine with its 3 campuses doing NASA work? 5 lane Martin Luther King with the franchises? Grand Isle Shipyard? Round -about going into the new multi million dollar developments off 311. All the brand new Homeland Security and corporate developments off HWY 56 . Cocodrie, which is based off Houma is under a total revitalization to multiple millions of dollars for world class offshore fishing and entertainment. St Charles St with modern design& lighting , 4 lanes , restaurants and services. This is unfortunate video that shows true but outdated life of early style Houma. Mardi Gras is better the NOLA because you can catch with many parades of 21 plus floats and because the riders care! NOLA MOTORSPORTS Raceway 35 minutes away and New Orleans Proper is 60 respectively FYI God Bless

Odd town
Are there any bad places in Houma? Looking to move there with my family.
www.neighborhoodscout.com/la/houma/crime
where are you moving from? Houma is growing, but it is not a bad place to want to raise a family.
The whole damn town. Do you and your family a favor and never move here. Unless getting robbed and smoking crack as a family is one of your hobbies
stay away from east street om the east side of houma also crackheads run rampant from time to time id suggest moving to gray its not far from houma
The first 1:20 was the hood and once you cross the bridge or the tunnel on the east is the hood buts it’s not out of control
