The Lake Pontchartrain corridor absorbed tens of thousands of New Orleans evacuees after 2005, accelerating demographic and political shifts in St. Tammany Parish, one of the fastest-growing and most reliably Republican-leaning metros in Louisiana.
Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 89.3 points in 1932 and a Republican high of 55.2 points in 1972. The 2024 margin was 43.8 points.
A population of 272,421, a 72% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $81,202 describe the metro. The metro's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of Lafayette, LA and Brenham, TX.
The metros whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.
Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap.
