Geography

Despite the frequent association of Cajuns with swamplands and bayous, Acadiana consists mainly of low gentle hills in the north section and dry land prairies, with marshes and bayous in the south closer to the coast. The wetlands increase in frequency in and around the Atchafalaya and Mississippi basins. The area also is cultivated with fields of rice and sugarcane.
