When most people think of New Orleans, they picture the French Quarter, the city’s oldest and most famous neighborhood. The French Quarter is home to an array of historic buildings with intricate wrought-iron balconies, quaint cafes, superb restaurants, one-of-a-kind museums, world-class street musicians, and the renowned nightlife and bar scene of Bourbon Street.
Outside of its bustling, tourist-driven core, the French Quarter offers plenty of charms for locals to enjoy. The French Market District contains a farmers market and a flea market, which are both beloved by the community. Lush green spaces provide a reprieve from the neighborhood’s excitement, from Louis Armstrong Park in the northwest to Woldenberg Park alongside the Mississippi River.
Rental options in the French Quarter largely include apartments, condos, and townhomes in various styles.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
