I always say NOLA has a lot of similarities if you don’t consider the attractions of the Quarter and the hub of music.

Both are inland ports, both have a similar inner city culture, both are run by highly suspect politicians and when shit hit the fan (riots an d floods) both got mocked nationally, both are seafood dining destinations both have iconic symbols (our flag and the Fluer De Lis)

I lived in New Orleans for the last decade and agree. Gritty old port cities that have been decimated from deindustrialization, are super friendly, love seafood, and have weird accents.

Also oddly enough, a lot of Maryland transplants in NOLA. Every time I visit I meet more people from here!
