Zachary is a city located in the Baton Rouge metropolitan area in East Baton Rouge Parish. The city is increasingly transforming itself from a country town to an affluent suburb of Baton Rouge. Land prices in Zachary have increased dramatically in recent years because of this, and, as of 2006, the displacement caused by Hurricane Katrina is expected to intensify this even more as former residents of New Orleans move northward.
Zachary was the first city in Louisiana to elect a Republican as mayor.
