Lafayette Parish is the center of Acadiana. The city of Lafayette is the parish seat and operates with the parish under Lafayette Consolidated Government, while smaller municipalities such as Broussard, Carencro, Scott and Youngsville have their own governments.
Our initial Lafayette Parish directory has a dedicated page for the city of Lafayette only. Homes in the parish’s other communities are not listed as separate pages yet, so send the exact address and the brokerage will confirm whether the property can be entered into ROAM MLS. Iberia Parish, including New Iberia, lies to the southeast.
The Vermilion River runs through the parish, and I-10 and I-49 meet in the city of Lafayette. When preparing a listing, take the legal description and improvements from the Lafayette Parish Assessor’s record, and check whether the property is inside a city limit or in an unincorporated area, because that can affect utilities and services buyers ask about.
