could you just say new orleans , baton rouge together, so simple
Personally I think South Louisiana might be better title, because Lafayette in there, Lake Charles in there, Slidell in there, Northshore in there, Houma in there, etc. etc.
Its a LONG way from Lake Charles to NO. The 225 area code (greater BR) has nearly 900k people, which is more than Laf, LC, Slidell, Houma, etc. combined. I for one am in BR a lot and never in NO - I would love to ditch BP in Baton Rouge.
Consider putting New Orleans / Northshore / Baton Rouge as a single forum location. Lafayette / Lake Charles are too far out of that SE Corner of Louisiana to be included. Plus, the volume associated with NOLA/Northshore/BR is far greater than any other area of the state. Both the Northshore and BR are only one hour from NOLA. It's a nice little "triangle."
