About Boothville
Boothville is a small census-designated place on the west bank of the Mississippi just upriver from Venice, with under 1,000 residents. Once a citrus-growing town (1930s Farm Security Administration photos document its orange groves), it is now a service hub for the offshore oil industry — its heliport flies crews to Gulf platforms — alongside commercial fishing.
