Don't move here 0.5 rating By Anonymous ( Jan 20, 2019) I moved from Baton Rouge because I wanted to be closer to Southeastern University, as I am a current student.

Secondly, there are no parks that feel safe enough to run around nor enjoy the scenery... I guess I was spoiled with the LSU lakes.

Hammond has Old South Charm 5 rating By gret60 ( Jan 03, 2017) The vibe of the city is one of warmth and Hospitality.

The city fully gets behind the athletics program,as they should.The city has plenty of restaurant/Bars around the city that will appease several different palates. Chinese, Italian, Mexican, Japanese, Seafood, Steak houses, high end Sandwich shops...the list goes on. The Farmers Market has grown into an event you do not want to miss. It is every Saturday from 8:00 am to 12 NoonPainting with a twist, Hot August nights, BBQ festival ...all of which I am not doing justice in mentioning as I did not go into detail. Read Less
