Metairie is an unincorporated community in Jefferson Parish and the most populous census-designated place in Louisiana, with roughly 138,500 residents. It lies directly west of New Orleans, bounded by Lake Pontchartrain to the north and the Mississippi River levee to the south. Development surged in the 1950s and 1960s as white flight from New Orleans drove suburban expansion.
Metairie Cemetery, established in 1872 on the site of a former horse racing track, contains elaborate tombs and monuments and is considered one of the most architecturally significant cemeteries in the South. Fat City, a commercial district near Severn Avenue, was a nightlife destination in the 1970s and 1980s and has seen recent revitalization efforts by Jefferson Parish.
The area's economy is tied to the broader New Orleans metro, with healthcare, oil and gas services, and retail as primary sectors. East Jefferson General Hospital (now Ochsner Medical Center - Jefferson Highway) is one of the largest medical facilities in the parish. Interstate 10 and the Earhart Expressway provide the main traffic corridors connecting Metairie to downtown New Orleans.
