Highland Acres, located between Jefferson Highway and the Mississippi River levee, is a residential and suburban River Ridge neighborhood with a leafy streetscape and a low-rise, mid-century feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Jefferson Highway corridor near Little Farms Avenue, where corner markets, longtime eateries, and service storefronts set a steady, local rhythm. Brick ranch homes and tidy yards line quiet blocks, while the levee path frames daily walks and bike rides with wide river views. Nearby green space at Jefferson Playground adds courts and open fields for casual recreation. The setting reads calm and practical, with most errands oriented to the highway strip and nearby Metairie.
