Is Madison, MS an upgrade from Prairieville?

You know how I know you've never been to Madison?

Nice area as long as you stay East of the interstate and away from Jackson.

It's Mississippi and NOT much around

But

Madison has tremendous leadership and is a very nice area. I'd do it.

I live in the area if you have any specific questions

Lived there for a few years post college and my wife’s family is from there. Clean town, low crime affordable housing, good restaurants but not really much to do. They are putting a top golf up around there

I always laugh at people glad to escape Louisiana yet move to somewhere in MS, AL, or AR.

Madison >>> Prairieville, but you're still only a few miles from Jackson, and it's creeping closer every day

Madison is pretty nice. A pretentious crowd, but you get that when you’re a top 5 town in a bottom 5 state and you’ve got 2 Kroger’s.

Just typical suburb shite to do for the most part.

If you like to light thousands of dollars on fire thinking it’s going to turn your kid is a 5 tool prospect, big travel ball crowd over there.

If you like boating, you’ve got the reservoir. If you like hunting, you’re less than 20 minutes from incredible deer hunting, but that’s going to cost more than the travel ball.

Also, unlike most of the state, the public schools will have your kids reading on the same grade level they’re actually in and not 4 grades behind the rest of the country, so there’s that.

Hell yes
