The route connects several small population centers in the Acadiana region of the state west of the busier US 167 corridor. These include Crowley, the parish seat of Acadia Parish, as well of the city of Eunice, and the town of Mamou. US 167 serves the parish seats of the three remaining parishes through which LA 13 passes. LA 13 also intersects three of Louisiana's major east–west cross-state highways: US 90 and I-10 in Crowley, and US 190 in Eunice.
