    Gretna 70053 hugs the Mississippi River just across from downtown New Orleans, with a compact Historic District of century-old shotguns, oak-lined streets, and a tight-knit, front-porch culture. Humid subtropical weather brings hot summers and mild winters; residents walk the levee path for sunset views, biking, and jogging, and gather at the weekly Gretna Farmers' Market on Huey P. Long Ave. The Gretna Cultural Center for the Arts, City Park, and Mel Ott Park anchor community life, while local favorites like Common Grounds Coffee House, Gattuso's, and Cafe 615 "Home of Da Wabbitt," plus the Oakwood Center shopping corridor, nearby grocers, and fitness centers keep daily needs close. JeT buses and quick access to the Crescent City Connection make it commuter-friendly and minutes from the CBD, yet evenings feel laid-back with neighborhood pubs and seasonal live music at Gretna Heritage Festival. Pet- and family-friendly vibe with pocket parks and sidewalks. Recent Zillow Market Trends show a median rent around $1,300, with most listings roughly $1,000-$1,800 in the past few months.
