Monroe sits on the east bank of the Ouachita River and is the seat of Ouachita Parish, with West Monroe directly across the water where our Cypress Street showroom is based. The housing stock leans older here, with a median year built of 1971, so we see a steady run of hall baths from the 1950s through the 1970s with original cast iron tubs and tile surrounds that homeowners are ready to retire. The Garden District and the neighborhoods around the University of Louisiana Monroe hold many of these older homes, and aging in place conversions are a common request from longtime owners who want to stay in them.
Census figures put the median Monroe home at about 55 years old, built around 1971. The market covers about 21,317 homes, and the median value sits near $174,800. That local mix shapes how we scope and schedule accessible showers work here. Figures are U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey estimates.
