Homes here are valued above the typical level across Beauregard Parish, and the winters are mild, with the coldest days in January still staying above freezing. Summers are hot, with August the warmest month, and a good deal of rain falls through the year.
Work. Residents of Longville work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in manufacturing, shops and the building trades.

From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Beauregard Parish and the DeRidder, LA metro.
