Part of an article from nola.com:

While the news of homeowners' return to New Orleans seems bright, nowhere
does that seem bleaker than in suburban St. Bernard Parish, where nearly
every shop and home was flooded.

So far, only 37 percent of those who have applied for grants said they
planned to rebuild their houses where they stood before the storm. Another
42 percent are seeking buyouts of some kind, though most indicated they
planned at least to remain in Louisiana.

The rest of the 3,805 applicants in St. Bernard are undecided or didn't
indicate their choice yet.
