Louisiana:

The Pelican State was admitted to the Union on April 30, 1812. By the 1840's, plantations dotted the state's lush lowlands, Mississippi steamboats reached the Gulf of Mexico, and New Orleans became the country's second largest port.

Perched above the Gulf at the mouth of the Mississippi, Louisiana is comprised mostly of lowlands, bayous, rolling pine hills and prairies. Its highest point, Mount Driskill, is only 535 feet above sea level. Semi-tropical conditions dominate. Areas close to the coast see very little difference between summer and winter.

Louisianans are leading producers of sweet potatoes, rice, sugar cane, shrimp, and muskrat fur. The state's extracted mineral wealth comes from deposits of salt, sulfur, natural gas, and offshore crude petroleum. Tourism continues to be an important part of the economy.

The state is the only one in the Union with laws on the books that refer back to the Napoleonic Code. It is also the only state to shun counties as a political subdivision. Louisiana prefers a system of parishes instead.

How do 55+ Communities Get Away with Age Discrimination?

The Fair Housing Act (FHAct) protects all citizens from discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, handicap or familial status. When it comes to senior housing, Congress created an exemption from the familial status requirements as long as the housing is specifically for at least one person who is 55 or older in at least 80 percent of the occupied units and adheres to a policy that demonstrates intent to house persons who are 55 or older.
