re: Is Mississippi a better state to live in than La?

I really like the north parts of Mississippi (Oxford, Tupelo, Olive Branch) and the coast in some parts, like Ocean Springs.

I think the people as a whole are extraordinarily kind, and overwhelmingly more open-minded than their neighbors to the South.

Given a choice, Mississippi is a way better place to live. It’s honestly a better place to live than most places in Alabama, sans a few spots like Fairhope, Huntsville, and Mountain Brook.
