Oakdale, Louisiana

Quiet, friendly, and brimming with southern hospitality, the City of Oakdale is a gem. With a city population of almost 30,000 and a community population of about 10,000, Oaklandis small enough to maintain its quality of life and located close enough to a major city to take advantage of its amenities - just thirty minutes northeast of New Orleans and the French Quarter and forty minutes west of the Gulf Coast beaches.

Oakland is a great place to live, work, play, and raise a family. The schools here continue to rank highest in the state, and our beautiful neighborhoods continue to grow. Oakland flourishes with cultural festivals, community parks, five-star shopping, fine dining, and recreation leagues for adults and children. From watching our state champion boys and girls soccer teams to fishing and scenic bayous, Oakland is truly Louisiana's sportsman paradise!
