Linked together by the nation's largest neon-lit bridge, Shreveport and Bossier City serve as the trade and cultural center of the 200-mile radius extending into Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas, known as the Ark-La-Tex.

Bossier City's name has always been unique. It was first officially named as the Village of Bossier City, then the Town of Bossier City to finally become, after a  legislative action against the United States Postal Service whose employees refused to deliver mail addressed to the Town of Bossier City, declaring it was just a town, not really a city, the City of Bossier City.

The Shreveport/ Bossier Area with it's old South elegance and gleaming glass skyscrapers nestling comfortably amid the natural splendors of Sportsman's Paradise, bears rich testimony to Louisiana's amazing diversity. Named for the rolling, wooded hills and the plentiful lakes, rivers and bayous that have yielded their bounty to eager hunters and fishermen since prehistoric times, Sportsman's Paradise is home to sophisticated cities, historic towns and abundant entertainment.

Since 1975, Barksdale AFB, Louisiana, located in the Shreveport/Bossier Area, is the home of the Eighth Air Force.
