Metairie is Greater New Orleans' largest unincorporated suburb — densely populated, heavily settled, and one of our most-served areas. Old Metairie, Bonnabel, Lafreniere, Bucktown, and the residential corridors along Veterans Memorial and West Esplanade make up most of the housing stock. Hurricane wind corridor exposure is the same as the rest of Jefferson Parish; the spec response is dialed in from hundreds of Metairie roofs since 2003.
