Agreed. Jackson has some very good restaurants and a good scene in Fondren.

And it actually has better living in the metro area that surrounds it. You can find nice places near the Reservoir, Madison, or Ridgeland.

You can get away from the crap. It's harder to do that in BR because the traffic is so much worse there.

That being said, I hate Jackson and I can't wait to move.

I think Montgomery is the worst capital in the Southeast.

I would put BR above Montgomery and Jackson only because BR has LSU to add entertainment. Other than that they are all shitholes.

Jackson's downtown makes BR's downtown look like Manhattan.

That's about it

The only redeeming qualities about Montgomery are decent restaurants when you're traveling through and I65 and U.S. 231.

Everyone saying this is just full of bs. Montgomery isn't that bad. The east side is good and downtown has come a long way. Jackson is fairly crappy. I don't think you can compare Montgomery and BR at all. I've lived near each for many years. The greater BR has 3x as many people and much bigger surrounding towns/cities.

Baton Rouge is infinitely better than Montgomery, imo. I have no opinion of Jackson

The population is declining in Jackson. That's a tell tale sign of shitty times abound.

It's declining for good reason. I hope to get away from here sooner rather than later.
