The intersection of Louisiana 16 and Louisiana 1019 is used to describe the general location of Watson.

Because Watson is an unincorporated community, there are no elected local representatives. Livingston Parish has jurisdiction over this community. There is no official community website, but the unofficial site WatsonLA.com is active and lists many current and upcoming events for the area. The site also contains a convenient listing of community businesses with telephone numbers.
 
According to the National Center for Education Statistics, Watson has three elementary schools, a middle school, and a high school. The elementary schools educate children from pre-kindergarten through fifth grade levels. From 2010 to 2011, 677 students attended Live Oak Elementary School. North Live Oak Elementary School had an enrollment of 844 students during this same time period, and 555 students attended South Live Oak Elementary School.

The Watson Branch is located at 36581 Outback Road in Denham Springs.
 
The Watson area hosts 12 churches. The majority of these churches are Southern Baptist congregations, but other denominations are represented as well. The Live Oak United Methodist Church at 34890 Highway 16 is reportedly one of the oldest churches in the area. It was originally a log structure that the Union Army burned to the ground during the Civil War, but it was rebuilt shortly thereafter. A wood frame building was constructed in 1893 and was used until the 1950s.
 
The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Map Service Center provides access to National Flood Insurance Program maps for Livingston Parish and all communities within that jurisdiction. As an unincorporated community, Watson does not have a unique FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map panel, and all special flood hazard area data must be obtained from the larger Livingston Parish maps. The community is approximately 65 feet above sea level.
 
As with all of Louisiana, the climate of Watson is considered subtropical and extremely humid. The winter season is short and relatively warm, and the summer season is long and hot. Air conditioning is not a luxury item in this region, and air conditioning service is always in demand. Mold spores grow easily in humid environments, and many types of mold can cause dangerous respiratory illnesses in humans. Air conditioning units dehumidify the air as they cool it, and less humid air is usually healthier air.
