Calhoun places elbow room and easy living within reach of regional opportunity. With swift I-20 access, you’re a short hop to West Monroe and Ruston, set amid the tall pines of Ouachita Parish and a quick drive to Monroe. Daily errands are simple along LA-151, while larger shopping, dining, and entertainment await just down the interstate. Housing ranges from wooded acreage and workshop-ready lots to newer subdivisions, so finding the right fit for space and budget is straightforward.
Families value local education options. Calhoun Elementary School anchors early grades with community-focused programs, and West Ouachita High School offers strong academics, arts, and athletics. The Calhoun Branch of Ouachita Parish Public Library adds story times, study resources, and events that knit the community together.
Outdoors, weekends might mean cypress views and boardwalks at Black Bayou Lake National Wildlife Refuge, playgrounds and trails at Kiroli Park, or sunset fishing at the parish’s Cheniere Lake Park. Healthcare is close at Glenwood Regional Medical Center, and collegiate energy is just west at Louisiana Tech University, bringing research, performances, and game days within an easy drive.
Whether you’re upsizing for a workshop, seeking a starter home with a short commute, or planning a quieter pace without losing convenience, Calhoun delivers a balanced lifestyle connected to jobs, schools, and recreation.
