Neighborhoods adjacent to the French Quarter are the Iberville Development, Central City, Tulane, and the Lower Garden District.

Garden District is a neighborhood with a host of southern mansions that have been preserved over time. The Garden District was once a number of plantations. When the area became to be more generally developed, the plan was to have just a few houses with large gardens surrounding them. Today, you can still see remnants of the original plan. But now, much smaller residents stand next to historic mansions, giving the Garden District an interesting landscape to live in. because the Garden District is on relatively high ground, it escaped a great majority of the flooding from Hurricane Katrina.

Audobon is a neighborhood named after the Audobon Park; the largest park in the area. both Loyola and Tulane University are located in the immediate area. Because of the high concentration of university students, the housing stock in Audobon is varied from apartments to condos and homes that have been converted into multi units. Housing is affordable, as well. The neighborhood draws hundreds of young professionals and families. The stores, restaurants, bars, and shops in the area reflect the community of Audobon. Public transportation is easily accessible.

West End is a neighborhood bounded by Lake Pontchartrain to the north and Robert E. Lee Boulevard to the south. The West End is the commercial and recreational seafood boating hub for New Orleans. Two yacht clubs and several other maritime related businesses populate the neighborhood. Recreation activities are also related to the West End's close proximity to water. In recent years, the West End has had an influx of condominium development which has added to the housing stock in the neighborhood. The West End was devastated by Hurricane Katrina, and is in the process of being rebuilt and redeveloped.

Lake Terrace/Lake Oaks is a neighborhood bounded by the Industrial Canal to the East and Bayou St. John to the west. The University of New Orleans principal campus and the Pontchartrain Amusement Park can both be found within the borders of this community.

Neighborhoods adjacent to the Lake Terrace/Lake Oaks neighborhood include Milneburg, St. Anthony and Dillard.

Musician's Village is a new neighborhood for musicians built around a music center where the artists are able to live, play, and teach in the same area. The Habitat for Humanity, and artists Brandford Marsalis and Harry Connick Jr. teamed up to build houses lost to Hurricane Katrina. The Ellis Marsalis Music Center is the centerpiece for the project. The project started in 2006 and has been going strong every since. Even though the community is being designed with musicians in mind, anyone can live there. Housing is affordable and it offers a great many residents and potential residences the opportunity to own their own home instead of renting.
