I was in Shreveport yesterday. It's ok but nothing special. They have casinos but they arent nice. The food is ok and the shopping there sucks. The hustlers strip club is cool. Two dollar Tuesdays are fukking great. I give it a 5.

Im actually from Shreveport and tbh id choose death over moving back there. Only good for casinos, Southern maid donuts, Southern classic Chicken, hunting or fishing, and nothing else
This is where the Black Authority is from

Wuuzam ...Da Port we in this biih 
I lived out there for a Year during my clinicals...the cops ain’t shyt.
Sportran was fukkery central
I was entertained everyday.
I stayed in Broadmoor near LSUS on Youree which was cool.
I wouldn’t stay there if I didn’t have too. The main problem with Shreveport/Bossier for me is that there isn’t any Division I schools or sports programs to root for there.
Like If Louisiana Tech were to relocate from Ruston that’s where it would need to be.
But it’s not not the worst city in America

Family roots are in Shreveport but I’ve never been, reading the comments, seems like I’m not missing much.

Got fam up there... one of them has a farm and everything.
I would retire there i guess on some shyt like him
But I have zero desire to go anywhere in north Louisiana.
Funny, because some people were saying it was better than Baton Rouge... if it’s worse than BR then

Yall rate everything based on women, weather, and night life.
Shreveport has a decent little night life for a smaller city with mostly gambling, bars, gentleman's clubs, and a few hole in the wall type establishments mixed in.
It has a couple of shopping areas like the Louisiana Boardwalk in Bossier, St. Vincent Mall (very small), and a few big box stores on Youree Drive which is the industrial hub there.
Shreveport has a large Black population the city is over 60 percent and they also have an intelligence young Black brother as mayor.
Much like a lot of other small southern cities that aren't in Texas or Florida, Shreveport suffers from a lack of industry. When a lot of the oil industry left in the late 80s it took a lot of jobs with it.
Shreveport has a lot of mom and pop and big box type restaurants as well.
Shreveport has nice looking women although some are as we call them ratchet and hood rats there is a nice selection of professional women that live there as well.
Shreveport shares more in common with East Texas and Southern Arkansas than it does with Southern Louisiana cities like New Orleans, Baton Rouge, and Lafayette.
The culture is much different in North Louisiana than South Louisiana its almost like 2 different states.
It has Southern Shreveport and Centenary College there as well.
I don't judge the smaller cities on the same set of standards I do larger ones. I'm not going to judge Shreveport on the scale I'd judge somewhere like LA, NYC, Philly, or Houston.
In comparison to similarly sized cities like Jackson, MS, Birmingham, Mobile, Little Rock, etc. I'd probably take Shreveport over most of them.
I give it a solid 6 for a smaller city.
