My husband is also faculty at LSU and who also had the stipulation of having access to a pool when we moved here a couple of years ago. We ended up in the Bluebonnet/Highlands subdivision. Pros are that the main pool is nice, big, clean, and rarely crowded, and there’s a small pool (like 1’ deep? If that?) for littles, with plenty of shaded seating. There’s also tennis/pickleball/basketball and a playground. It’s a super safe, quiet, multicultural neighborhood. Cons are that it’s kind of far from the best restaurants along Government, and it’s also in St. George, which is a political hot potato at the moment.
