About
Scotlandville
Scotlandville, located between the Mississippi River levee and Southern University’s campus, is a historic and residential Baton Rouge neighborhood with a riverfront edge and a strong collegiate backdrop. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Scenic Highway near Harding Boulevard, where corner markets, barbershops, and casual eateries sit beside long views of the river corridor. Southern University and A&M College anchors daily rhythms with its stadium lights, band culture, and campus greens. The Southern University Museum and the Southern University Laboratory School add a civic, educational presence. Housing reads as a mix of mid-century ranch homes, older cottages, and newer infill along broad, tree-lined streets. Parks and the levee path shape an outdoors-forward routine tied to the water and open sky.
