New Orleans is a major United States port and the largest city and metropolitan area in the state of Louisiana.
The population of the city was 343,829 as of the 2010 U.S. Census. The New Orleans metropolitan area (New Orleans–Metairie–Kenner Metropolitan Statistical Area) had a population of 1,167,764 in 2010 and was the 46th largest in the United States.

The city of New Orleans is geographically coextensive with Orleans Parish. The city is known for its distinct French and Spanish Creole architecture, as well as its cross-cultural and multilingual heritage. New Orleans is famous for its cuisine, music (particularly as the birthplace of jazz) and its annual celebrations and festivals, most notably Mardi Gras.
The city is often referred to as the "most unique" in the United States. New Orleans is located in southeastern Louisiana, and occupies both sides of the Mississippi River. The heart of the city and its French Quarter is on the river's north side. The city and Orleans Parish (French: paroisse d'Orléans) are coterminous. The city and parish are bounded by the parishes of St. Tammany to the north, St. Bernard to the east, Plaquemines to the south, and Jefferson to the south and west. Lake Pontchartrain, part of which lies within the city limits, lies to the north and Lake Borgne lies to the east.

Some of the people in this community are very nice and understanding
Algiers, in my opinion, is a very age friendly area of the city. Mostly because everyday as I commute to and from my home, I always see a wide range of different age groups engaging in various activities, from young children riding their bikes to the elderly walking their dogs. A great representation of how diverse this area is when it comes to age is shown anytime I go to the local grocery store. In there, you're almost certain to run across every age group.
The people
I live in a city where the Hospitality is great, yet most people stay to themselves and mind there business.
I'm a firm believer on if you give the right energy, the right energy will present itself to you, I also believe age doesn't play a huge factor in friendliness. I believe that if a person truly has love and compassion in there hearts, friendliness can go along way and it doesn't matter the age when it comes to doing that job.
