Perkins-Highland, located between Perkins Rd and Highland Rd, is a residential and commercial Oak Hills Place neighborhood with mature tree cover and a low-slung, mid-century streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Perkins Rd corridor near Highland Rd, where patio dining, small bars, and local storefronts keep the sidewalks active after work. Housing leans toward ranch-style homes and updated brick builds set back behind deep lawns and live oaks. Daily rhythms orbit nearby green space and the Baton Rouge lakes, with walking and cycling routes threading outward. Local pillars include The Chimes, Overpass Merchant, and The Varsity Theatre, anchoring food, coffee, and live music in a compact radius.
