Reminds me of "County Line Road" in Jackson, Miss. from the 70's. I'd take that road off I-55 to get to the Ross Barnett Reservoir where I lived and worked and it was just a small rural 2 lane road with cow pastures, open land, the occasional Mom & Pop General Store.

Went up to Jakson around 2015 and saw it's a multi-lane road now with strip malls, apartment complexes, commercial businesses etc.
CLR is pretty ghetto now

I wonder how deep the ghetto has penetrated into Ridgeland

From what I've read for a couple years now, the entire city of Jackson is ghetto now with lots of failing infrastructure adding to the woes.

Shame too because when I lived on the Reservoir I loved heading into Jackson but really did spend most of my time outside the city limits.

I worked on one of the 4 marinas they had operating at the time-----Old Trace Marina---- but it has been long shut down and that whole area near the Yacht Club is now high end homes, but when I was up there, it was all woods.

Ridgeland is still nice. But I moved north 20 years ago just in case.
