Not to mention San Marcos, Texas which is literally dead smack between Austin, Texas (the fastest growing city in the US - 42 minutes away) and San Antonio (51 minutes away), which are both huge markets.

Guillory recently said on KPEL morning news, Acadiana is the only area in the state experiencing population growth. And it’s at a pretty substantial rate in the suburbs of Lafayette (Scott/Carencro/Milton/Youngsville)

You can add Maurice to that list too. Definitely growing in Acadiana.

Lafayette (of the Metro areas in Louisiana with more than 100,000 people, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport and Lafayette) has been the only area that has seen growth in probably the last 20 or so years. Now if you take the Northshore/St Tammany of the New Orleans Metro area that area has probably seen the biggest growth. But most of those are people leaving Orleans and Jefferson Parishes and moving to St. Tammany.

Maurice is growing exponentially as well. There will be nearly 2000 new homes between 2020 and 2024.
