Welcome to Southern Heights

Subdivision founded in December 1952

Established in 1952, we are proud of our neighborhood for its historic significance as one of the first fine home subdivisions for African Americans in Louisiana. Its beginnings were affiliated with Southern University and its residents included Southern University professors, administrators, and employees; African American entrepreneurs; East Baton Rouge Parish and Louisiana state employees as well as plant workers seeking good housing.
