High School Graduate (% of Over 25) by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Louisiana

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

High school graduation rates across Louisiana exhibit a notable urban-suburban divide, with darker blue pockets of lower attainment concentrated in urban cores such as New Orleans, Shreveport, and Baton Rouge, while surrounding suburban zip codes consistently reach 90% or above. The northwestern quadrant of the state, particularly areas around Bossier and Lincoln parishes, displays relatively higher graduation rates compared to the rural Delta parishes along the Mississippi River corridor, where rates frequently dip below 75%. A distinct cluster of very low attainment (below 50%) appears in parts of southeastern Louisiana near New Orleans, contrasting sharply with adjacent suburban zip codes that approach near-universal high school completion.
