North Houma, located between Bayou Terrebonne and the Intracoastal Waterway, is a residential and commercial Houma neighborhood with bayou-edge scenery and a car-oriented street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Grand Caillou Road and Martin Luther King Boulevard corridor, where local plate-lunch counters, bait-and-tackle shops, and small service storefronts set a working-bayou rhythm. Housing trends toward ranch-style homes and newer subdivisions, with wide lots and deep driveways. Daily life orbits around schools, ballfields, and errands along the main arterials. The bayou landscape and canals shape views, drainage ditches, and pockets of green space. Nearby civic and cultural stops in central Houma add museums, theaters, and festivals to the routine.

Single-Family Residential District
These districts are composed mainly of areas containing one-family dwellings and open areas where similar residential development seems likely to occur; few two-family and multiple-family dwellings are found in these areas. The district regulations are designed to protect the residential character of the areas by prohibiting all commercial activities, to encourage a suitable neighborhood environment for family life by including among the permitted uses such facilities as schools and churches and to preserve the openness of the areas by requiring certain minimum yard and area standards to be met.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Agriculture
Community / recreation center
Housing-Single unit
