I am currently at LSU. It really depends what neighborhood it is. Closer to River Road the better. Several of my college professors, including my major professor, live in one of the subdivisions. Some are solely college kids. You'll be able to tell by driving through. overall, its an okay area if you're away from Alvin Dark.
Best of luck.
edit: if you are going to lsu, live as close as possible. I live a mile less from campus in a very nice place, pay the same or less than anyone near LSU, and bike to school/work everyday
