Введение
Скотт — четвёртый по величине муниципалитет в округе Лафайетт, штат Луизиана, США. По данным переписи населения США 2010 года, численность населения составляла 8614 человек, а по переписи 2020 года — 8119 человек, по сравнению с 7870 человеком в 2000 году. Скотт является пригородом Лафайетта и входит в состав Лафайеттской столичной статистической области в регионе Акадия.
История
В 1902 году Габби Андерсон построил салун в западном стиле, чтобы он служил "эксклюзивным баром только для мужчин и местом встреч для пожилых людей". Причиной для создания салуна было его убеждение, что "именно здесь начинается Запад". Однако считается, что этот слоган возник из-за того, что в Скотте заканчивались тарифы на проезд по восточным железным дорогам и начинались тарифы на проезд по западным железным дорогам, известным как "West Line". Железная дорога Юнион Пасифик, ранее известная как Южная Тихоокеанская железная дорога, разделяет город на две части. Первым поселенцем Скотта был Александр Дельхом, который занял землю в северной части города. Дельхом владел первой сенокосилкой, мукомольной мельницей и хлопкоочистительной машиной. К 1880 году было завершено строительство железнодорожного депо, и город стал деревней. В 1907 году город был официально зарегистрирован и назван в честь Дж. Б. Скотта, который был начальником дивизиона Южной Тихоокеанской железной дороги. Деревня стала городом в 1960 году, а город получил статус города в 1990 году. 12 апреля 2012 года законодательное собрание штата Луизиана присвоило Скотту звание "Столица Будина мира", имея в виду каджунскую колбасу. Это означало, что два других города Луизианы должны были отказаться от своих титулов. Бруссард, также расположенный в приходе Лафайетт, теперь известен как "бывшая столица Будина мира", но принял неофициальный титул "Межгалактическая столица Будина позитивной бесконечности", а Дженнингс, в приходе Джефферсона Дэвиса, носит титул "Столица Будина Вселенной". Основания для претензий Скотта на этот титул весьма весомы: здесь самое большое количество производителей будина на душу населения по всему штату, а также несколько наиболее известных производителей. Ни один другой город в Луизиане не производит больше будина, чем Скотт.
