Tucked along the Red River in northwestern Louisiana, Bossier City is a place whose character is shaped by the river corridor and its close ties to Shreveport across the water. The two cities form the core of the Shreveport–Bossier metropolitan area and are connected by several bridges over the river. Barksdale Air Force Base, established as Barksdale Field in 1933, is a defining local institution; it is home to the 2nd Bomb Wing and its B-52H Stratofortress aircraft. Casinos near the river and the Louisiana Boardwalk retail and entertainment complex underline Bossier City’s role as a regional leisure destination.
