Occasionally, because Bedico Creek Preserve is such a popular neighborhood on the northshore of Lake Pontchartrain in New Orleans, Louisiana, we will have newspaper, magazine, and online articles and blogs written about our master-planned community. We feature these articles in our Press Room area. Also, we sometimes create press releases for special news and events that are happening at Bedico Creek Preserve. You can find all of this information, plus make media inquiries all right here in our Press Room.

The New Year Began With Strong Single-Family Permit Gains
The National Association of Home Builders Eye On Housing reports that January 2021 was a month to celebrate in the housing industry. Single-family permit gains saw a year-over-year 19.2% increase from January 2020. In January 2020 the level was reported at 70,386 and in January 2021 the level reached 83,921 year-to-date YTD.
All four regions saw increases. The Midwest saw an increase of 21.5%, right behind the Northeast with a 20.7% increase, the South 20.3% and the West came in last with a 15.1% increase. Sources feel that the Midwest saw the biggest increase due to the area’s more affordable housing.
Not all states saw a YTD increase from January 2020 to January 2021. The highest increase was in South Dakota going from 99 to 202 with a 104% increase. The biggest decline was seen in Montana from 171 in 2020 to 144 in 2021 making this a decline of 15.8%. The top 10 states with the highest numbers combined accounted for 64.1% of the total single-family permits issued.
