Metairie and its surrounding suburbs dominate the northern landscape of this Jefferson Parish region, showing a dense residential grid reaching toward the Mississippi River. The river's winding path is defined by sharp bends and industrial infrastructure, notably the Huey P Long Bridge connecting Bridge City to Elmwood. Along the southern banks, the character of the land shifts toward petroleum extraction and wetlands management, evidenced by the Westwego Oil and Gas Field and the Avondale Oil Field near the Labranche Canal.
