Louisiana’s 64 parishes, by the numbers

Every parish’s population, median household income, unemployment, density, and land area — sortable by any column, so you can find yours or rank by what matters to you. A few patterns run through the data:

  • Concentrated. Half of Louisiana’s 4,573,749 residents live in just 8 of 64 parishes, and the five largest hold 38.5% of the total. Census PEP 2023
  • Income tracks poverty. The gap from richest to poorest runs 2.6×, and the 10 highest-income parishes average 14.6% in poverty against 29.9% for the 10 lowest. Census SAIPE 2023
  • Mostly small. Half of Louisiana’s parishes have fewer than 31,654 residents, and half report a median household income below $53,035 — a few metros lift the statewide totals well above both. Census PEP 2023 · SAIPE 2023
  • Lopsided density. Only 17 of 64 parishes are denser than Louisiana’s statewide average of 106 people per square mile — the rest are more rural. Census PEP 2023 · TIGER
