It is usual for celebrities to live near Los Angeles or New York City. That is because these are the entertainment industry hot spots that allow actors and musicians to be near their workplaces. However, Sandra Bullock seems to be a bit different. She owns a home that is far away from both Los Angeles and New York City.
Sandra has a net worth of around $200 million. Because of that, she can afford to invest quite a lot in real estate. She has houses in many places such as New York, California, and Georgia.
However, Sandra’s primary residence is in New Orleans, Louisiana.
In 2009, she bought a home in the Big Easy’s Garden District with her ex-husband Jesse James. The house has five bedrooms and four bathrooms, costing $2,250,000.

Even though she and James are no longer together, she still lives there with her two children and boyfriend, Bryan Randall.
We don’t know when Sandra fell in love with New Orleans, but she did spend a lot of time there when she was filming the 2007 movie Premonition.
It enables her to get away from the chaotic life of Los Angeles and New York City.
“Sandy leads a normal life and really separates herself from the Hollywood hype when she is not promoting a movie or shooting a film,” the source said. “One of her favorite things to do is stay home with her kids and Bryan.”

There is another reason why she chose Louisiana: Her two children were both adopted from there. She adopted a son, Louis, in 2010 and a daughter, Laila, in 2015.
