Plaquemine invites you to a storied river town where everyday life plays out along the Mississippi with equal parts history, community, and convenience. Weekends often start at the waterfront, where anglers cast from shady banks and families explore the engineering marvel at the Plaquemine Lock State Historic Site. Downtown’s brick-lined blocks, the Iberville Museum, and seasonal festivities create a steady rhythm that feels both familiar and full of discovery.
Families appreciate the academic options offered by the Iberville Parish School Board, including programs that emphasize STEM, workforce certification, and arts education. The Iberville Parish Library supports learners of all ages with maker events, digital resources, and a welcoming Plaquemine Branch. When it’s time for routine care or specialty services, the Ochsner Medical Complex – Iberville is right in town, while the amenities of Baton Rouge are just a straightforward drive away.
Local services are easy to navigate through the City of Plaquemine and Iberville Parish Government, and residents make frequent use of parks, playgrounds, and community centers for youth sports and neighborhood gatherings. From historic shotgun cottages to newer developments near schools and shopping, housing choices accommodate first-time buyers, move-up households, and downsizers alike.
