Just was reading through this. I posted in 2008 about this place. I moved here in 2003 and never looked back. No mountains but the bayou is a place loaded with wildlife and an abundance of beauty. I have become a part of this community. I consider myself lucky to have found this place. As for the 20 best fishing places in that article Venice was not mentioned because it is still a well kept secret.

Your favorite TV show is swamp people.



Why should I move?

BTW my city water, city sewer, and twice weekly trash pickup, with no recycling, is still $9.20 per month. It has not gone up since we moved here. We just put $100.00 on the account and when it gets low we add to the account.

There is no traffic at all here. Our closest traffic light is 56 miles away. Closest wal-mart is about 70 miles away. We do have stores near by to get items we need. Life is different here and yes ---- Life is good!
