Think hard about Medical care and Hospitals before you consider moving to South or Southwest Mississippi.
I know people on here like to circle jerk about living in a small town (which I have no problems with, I would to if I didn't know the circumstances) but this is a real thing. My parents moved back to Lafayette after moving to rural Arkansas because my disabled stepfather had to drive 3 hours to Little Rock to see a specialist. Not to mention there are zero jobs in these areas, especially if you work in a white collar field and don't want to commute 3 hours a day.

Could not imagine being forced to live in Mississippi.


If it's any consolation, they couldn't imagine you being forced to live there, either.

Needs to have a good school, assuming private. If you had to pick a place.

Purvis, schools are much, much better. Unless you want to pay for private school. Nothing on 98.




Plus Purvis Mississippi colors are purple and gold. You want have to spend money on a new wardrobe.

If you are in or around Hattiesburg, there are docs in Hattiesburg, on the MS gulf coast (1 hr south) and in the NO area (1.5 hr south).

I would say being in the north part of the state is worse because you have to hope they have the docs you want in Jackson or Memphis and they don’t have a waiting list that makes the National Health in the UK blush.

Oak Grove, Sumrall, Columbia , Poplarville. In that order. And you can do all public school.


Fixed it for you! No one in their right mind would ever want to move and attend school in Baxterville, MS

Things have probably changed since I lived in the area 10 years ago, but Baxterville used to be a small, quiet diamond in the rough for those not wanting to attend the march larger Oak Grove and Purvis schools.

Additionally, Columbia was mediocre crap back then. I could see the town's potential of potentially becoming an exburb of Oak Grove, but if Columbia is still on the same level, I would continue to avoid.
