True.
A lot of gentrification after Katrina.
The Marigny was even more dangerous than the French Quarter when I there.
I walked my dog on Esplanade.
I never crossed into the Marigny.
New Orleans had the highest per capita homicide rate in the nation when I lived there.
People were shot dead in the Marigny, the French Quarter, and Downtown practically every day.
The victims were residents and visitors.
It didn't matter.
Being surrounded by that kind of random and horrific violence got to be too much for us.
So one day we bought a Honda Civic, packed, and drove to Arizona.
He had a remote job lined up, but we had no idea where we were going to live.
We had decided to live in Arizona but not where.
We ended up on 17, stayed in Prescott, and decided to live in Prescott Valley.
We lived there for four years before moving to HI.
He was living in NO at the time. I was living in Tampa.
I moved in with him in NO.
New Orleans is one of the world's great cities.
No doubt.
I'm glad you're enjoying it so much!

I loved Sedona.
My favorite was Flagstaff. We almost settled there. I'm glad we didn't.
The affordable lots were close to the railroad tracks. If you go a few miles north into the forest the environment is better.
Unfortunately it wasn't a consideration.
We spent a lot of time in Prescott, Sedona, Phoenix, and Flagstaff.
Yes, I've been fortunate that way.

I just now finally added a Pyrex measuring cup full of bleach into the stagnant water in my washer.
I have my shop vac unpacked and need to read the instructions and learn how to use it
I don't know how they got this washer in here or how they're going to get it out.
For one thing the dryer is on the left and it's in the way.
For another I just measured everything.
By my calculations 28" of of the washer have to fit though spaces that are approximately 28".
It doesn't make sense to me.
But this is what they get paid for.
I'm sure they'll figure it out.
It might happen as early as Tuesday but they haven't called to set the appointment yet.

When Lauren was living in Henderson NV we spent Christmases out there and used it as a base of operations for trips to the natural wonders and towns within= driving distance. One year was the Canyon, Sedona and we stayed in Flagstaff. turned out we liked Flagstaff the best. Wonderful town. Found a fantastic little second story wine bar downtown that had a bigger wine list than I've ever seen. It had to have been some rich person's personal project as there's no way the local supported that cellar commercially.

You're probably right, that if it made it into the house that it can go out the same way. There are exceptions, of course, but they're not very common.
OTOH, I think stores are expecting the homeowner to verify that the purchased appliance will fit through doorways and can be installed in the space where it will reside.
Home Depot's "Prepare for Delivery" instructions:
https://www.homedepot.com/c/Appliance_Delivery_Installation
There are also "how to measure" instructions on the page for the appliance you're buying. They walk you through step by step.
You can usually find the dimensions of appliances online. If you have the model number of the dead Amana you can look it up and compare it to the GE Hotpoint that you're buying. If the new one is the same size or smaller you should be good to go.

Mayla and I went to that wine bar on your recommendation. It was fabulous.
