Metairie-Kenner Market
Metairie-Kenner is the heart of suburban New Orleans — Jefferson Parish's commercial center. Louis Armstrong International Airport anchors the Kenner economy. East Jefferson Medical Center (now LCMC Health) is a major employer. The Metairie commercial corridor along Veterans Memorial Boulevard is one of the busiest in the metro.
Higher household incomes than New Orleans proper drive demand for professional services — medical practices, dental offices, attorneys, and financial services. Suburban retail and restaurant demand is strong. Commercial real estate is active with office, medical, and retail properties.
For Metairie-Kenner business owners, the market is stable and professional. Healthcare practices, restaurants, and service businesses operate at lower costs than downtown New Orleans but with strong consumer demand from an affluent suburban population.
