Forbes found Lafayette to be in the top two-hundred cities on their list of the Best Places for Business and Careers, largely because of Lafayette’s extremely low cost of doing business and its high rate of job growth. In addition, Southern Business and Development put Lafayette on its list of the top ten economies in the south, with its “sizzling mid-market economy” and diverse success in such industries as technology, healthcare, energy, and entertainment.

The LSBDC offers various resources to new business owners, operating from Louisiana State University. The team of consultants at the University are award winning, and offer their cumulative decades of experience to new business owners and entrepreneurs.

Cajun Capital
Cajun culture, a blend of French, Spanish, Indian, and African cultures, abounds in Lafayette. Indeed, the city proclaims itself the Cajun Capital of the country, with its rich music scene and thriving food industry. Indeed, boudin, a famous Cajun food, is so popular in the city that there’s a so-called Boudin Trail, including a map, which shows all the best places to eat this delicacy so locals and tourists alike can be sure not to miss out on the best boudin in town. The Cajun life philosophy of “joie de vivre,” joy of life, is integral to the cultural identity of Lafayette.
