The Top Neighborhoods in Carencro, Louisiana

Located along Interstate 49 between Lafayette and Opelousas, the city of Carencro offers quiet, suburban living and easy access to two larger cities. With a population of less than 10,000, you’ll be settling into a close-knit community with little traffic, lots of culture and easy access to interstate travel for a convenient commute. Here are four of our favorite neighborhoods located in Carencro.

Located right off of W. University and a short distance from Carencro Middle, Evangeline Memorial Gardens and both Carencro and Pelican park lies the Oak Path subdivision. It’s perfect for small families or those looking for easy access to nearby Lafayette (a short trip down W. University). Residents of this neighborhood enjoy all of the benefits and peace of country living while still being within the city limits, and many of the lots offer additional land options and larger yards at a cheaper price than you’d find in larger cities.
