You are looking at Mississippi with a northern mind,most Mississippians are more concerned with quality of life instead of the " amenities " northerners find so important, by quality l mean the caring ,freindly,honest,hardworking,low crime,atmosphere found in small Mississippi towns,we may not be as sophisticated or wealthy as some,but we are absolutely rich in the things that matter to us
Hattiesburg is the second biggest city in the state? 1) Jackson: 163,778 2) Gulfport: 71,660 3) Southaven: 55,026 4) Biloxi : 46,042 5) Hattiesburg: 46,010
The UN sent a team to the southeastern states several years ago to assess living conditions. After all said & done, the UN report stated that MS was the only state in the USA that could pass for a third world country, economically, education, infant mortality, public health/sanitation issues, poverty. You can keep it.
@@hoopty. I’ve lived in both and while both have their perks Tupelo is a really nice place. It’s growing every year, low crime, only thing is there aren’t many attractions there but that kinda adds to the charm to me.
Mississippi is better than a lot of states when it comes to things to do and outdoor opportunities. I would choose the Miss coast over several of the Midwestern states, and Louisiana and Arkansas.
Olive Branch, Pass Christian/Long Beach, Madison, or a number of small towns dotted around the state. All depends on what you’re looking for; peace and quiet or action and fun. If you’re looking for both… probably somewhere on the coast.
I live in North Gp right now,, been between here and Biloxi the last 15years. .... Moving home soon to Hattiesburg. Although I spent alot of my youth in Wisconsin, I LOVE MISSISSIPPI 🥰
@@hiphoppeepParts of Pearl are ok. I had a house while I was there, but I was kinda in the county. Ridgeland and Brandon are nice also. Flowood is nice too
@@hiphoppeep I live in pearl now, it’s really nice if I’m being honest. Brandon and Ridgeland is super nice to! But some apartments are run down so you get bugs here and there. But flowood is definitely the place you want to be. It’s full of palm trees
Shhh…keep it a secret. Let these dorks trash MS all they want. The last thing you want is a bunch of folks finding out how great your nice, quiet, safe, affordable town is. They’ll come and ruin it.
I am seriously considering moving to Mississippi next year. I stayed in Yazoo city for about a year while building the federal prison. I loved it! Some of the most friendly people I've ever known. I felt at home and there wasn't but 1 thing I didn't like. The fact that you have to go to Jackson for just about everything.
@@jamesclemons632 What Confederate flags? I've never seen a Confederate flag in my life except in museums, maybe. I occasionally see a rebel flag on a pickup truck, but I can't find these Confederate flags people keep talking about being flown anywhere in the South. That's because they're not being flown anywhere. If I ever attach a CSA flag to my truck, most people won't know that it was a CSA flag, especially the first one.
I've lived in Mississippi all my life, the coast is the only spot where it's at but the water does NOT look clear like in this video. It's brown maybe dark blue on a hot summer day. Jackson is mainly the ghetto except for the main city, everything else is country af which could be good or bad depending on how your look at it. Forgot about Hattiesburg, it's an alright college town.
My dad grew up in Greenville (I did in Chicago) and we have a place in Oxford we go to very often as I have brothers at the university. I think Oxford is awesome, but it’s definitely a bubble from the rest of the state. I would love to see Mississippi be revived though as it’s clear it’s the poorest state.
Yes! The Coast is definitely the place to be in the entire state of Mississippi but yeah the water on the beach is NOT the place to be lol.. But we have some nice water parks and a few lakes but I wouldn't recommend that beach water. It's the Only down fall of the Coast.🙄
im from Wiggins ms, i love Mississippi i dont care what other people say about Mississippi im current living in Texas and can't wait to get back to my roots lol
I’m living in Texas right now myself and trust me the first chance I get I’m moving back… I’m from Columbus Mississippi and I love everything about my state no cap
We also live in TX, but recently purchased land in Carriere, MS. Looking forward to retiring to a slower pace and cheapest cost of living in the country.
If you want small town life with friendly people, there’s Poplarville, MS. It’s home to the Blueberry Festival and the Sweet Tea Festival. It’s an easy drive from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, Hattiesburg, MS, and New Orleans, LA. One of the best junior colleges in the south is located there as well, Pearl River Junior College.
I live in clinton. Mississippi isn’t the best state by no stretch of the imagination, but its my home. Wish it could be better, but we can’t always have things the way we want.
Well, it depends on what you do for work. I drive a forklift so it would be impractical for me to try to live in Madison or the nice areas of the Coast because the houses are too high so for me, I got a little house with a few acres in the East Central part of the state near Meridian... Also a great area if you work in the medical field. It all comes down to coast of living. I could live in a nicer area but I would struggle more financially so that's my point.
@@mj-ls7qr8xp3n The weather is good mostly. The occasional tornado but generally they are small. We've never a major killer tornado. Hurricanes; only the 4s and 5s do damage here and it's pretty light damage because it's weak by the time it gets here. We don't flood because there are no major rivers here and it's hilly.
I don't live in Mississippi but I love visiting my sister there. You would think a southern state like that would have a high population and built up etc but the opposite is true. Good ole southern culture
Bay St Louis is great too. Biloxi also has a lot to offer. There are a lot of empty lots along the Ms. Coast after Katrina. I'm trying to find one now for a bargain.
Definitely Brandon......not sure if you are familiar with the area or not but the video footage of Brandon (39047)at the Reservoir is much closer to Flowood than Brandon (39042).

Ocean springs is bougie, but has a nice small downtown restaurant and bar atmosphere. It’s more neighborhoods and beach areas but, less businesses. They’re right next door to each other though.

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got talking about investment and money. I started investing with $120k and in the first 2 months , my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and gets more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.
I’ve been forced to find additional sources of income as I got retrenched. I barely have time to continue trading and watch my investments since I had my second daughter. Do you think I should take a break for a while from the market and focus on other things or return whenever I have free time or is it a continuous process? Thanks...

As a native Mississippi resident I can positively say almost all of us don't want anyone moving here. Instead of moving to Mississippi use that energy, time, and money to make your state a better place to live in.
I see this a lot from conservative State residents. I am from Pennsylvania (all my life) and making it "better" is a constant fight against the idiots in Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia. I want to eventually move somewhere that I don't have to work/fight to make it better.
Mississippi actually would benefit from outsiders moving in. There aren’t many opportunities there and just because you’re doing well your state is not and continues to be the poorest. You’d be a fool to chase away opportunities for your state. I live in the suburbs of New Orleans and half my coworkers drive from Mississippi because of no good paying jobs. People drive all the way from Jackson and Hattiesburg just to make a living so that means things need to change not stay the same 🤷🏾♂️
Ford plant, Nissan, gmc, Nike, fed ex, Valero, Hershey, Kellogg, post, Volvo, railroads, etc...plenty of jib, money and homes in northern, Mississippi. Some of the best schools
A lot of Brandon sits on the Ross Barnett Reservoir. The dumb thing around here is that there are two parts to Brandon. There's Flowood Brandon, and then there's Brandon Brandon. Flowood Brandon is what's on the Rez.
Come to Mississippi! We are known for having lower living costs. We have hot summers and severe weather, but the winters are mild and the landscape stays green year-round. If you come to the southern half of the state we also have a lot of great swimholes, creeks with nice white gravel bars along the sides. People make fun of our state for things but there are hidden treasures here if you will just give Mississippi a chance.
Those towns listed are not suburbs. They are independent cities with their own government etc. I'm a former Mississippi resident who remembers when they all used to be relatively small towns. I still have cousins in Brandon, Starkville and rural areas. All have their pluses and minuses. Jackson is just a disaster area. Totally inept city council and Mayor. U.N. should just go f itself.
Exactly!!. And dis is why all of that crap he saying about the nicest cities to live in I don't believe it was in the right order. He couldn't even get the second largest city correct, so whats makes anyone believe anything he says in the video?
I just went to ocean springs to buy a small house I looked at a small 1000 SQ ft house on a 75 by 100 it was rotted the floors were eaten by termites and the windows were rotten basically the house should be knocked down and the asking price was a rediculous $390,000
$169k for a house in Clinton 😂😂😂 let’s all take a moment of silence for that price that has been long gone for some years now. I’ve lived in Clinton my entire life, and a house for that price will not be in very good shape, and need major renovations. $250k + is the average now. Clinton is a great place to live though, quiet most of the time, schools are some of the best in the nation, etc. Jackson is starting to spill over though, which is a huge blow to the city.
I wish Jackson would be revived. I know several people from there that are very successful and they don’t have much nice to say about it. They usually refuge to Oxford on the weekends.
I was thinking the same thing as far as prices for housing. I was thinking what year is this? $980 for rent? It sure is a whole heck of a lot more than that now 🤦🏾♀️
I word of advice, which by the way, I base my opinion on a person by their actions and not where they are from or their ethnicity. There are decent, considerate and people of good moral character all over the world. Be very cautious with regards to who will be your neighbors. I lived next to Indian computer engineering students. Ever since they moved in I have been having issues with my Wifi and computer network being hacked. Besides that, they exceeded the occupancy limits, that is the number if people allowed to live in the apartment. Which causes excessive noise at all hours. Additionally they liked having phone conversations outside which usually tends to be in front of other tenants apartments which can cause a disturbance. They were asked not to disturb other tenements but they still kept doing it. When they used the laundry room they leave the clothes in the machines over night and sometimes even days, and do not clean up after themselves once they are done. Additionally, They are not very clean in general. Once an animal did poo near their front door and they never cleaned it up. This attracted flies in my home. It was a mess. Once they finally moved, everything was better. And the fly problem in my home went away. Unfortunately they have some kind of superiority complex where they think they are better than everyone and don't need to be considerate, or respect other people's privacy, and that superiority complex leads them to feel that they don't have to clean AKA pick up after themselves and that they should get everything for free or at a cheap price.
Smh.. So I guess it's all indians that are like dis is what ur basically saying? See dis is how typically another way racism is started, by giving heads up on a certain type of people or race of people there way of living and u should stay away in other words and All pyronoid watchful to those kind of people. ONLY IN MISSISSIPPI ONLY IN MISSISSIPPI SMH.. So Sad.
@@sdirvin1 That's how Racism start, judging a diff race from there own. And brain washing others thinking to believe that dis particular group or race is the problem, when actually there the ones who are actually the real problem and also creating the problem!. They are Just pathetic!.
houses in hattiesburg really cost 50,000 to 165,000 rent is 300 to 900 a month actually there's nothing to do in hattiesburg i know i live in hattiesburg
@@igotvictory3591 those are for people who don't look around and take whatever is easiest. I pay 400 a month for a 1 bedroom house next to a beautiful pond.
I moved to Mississippi (Gulfport) 3 years ago and I have never dreaded anything more than moving here. Ocean Springs is a suburb of Biloxi and casinos are the ONLY major industry. The cost of living is NOT below the national average. A run down 2br house will run you about $1100/m. Crime is high. Mississippi is the poorest state in the country. The acedemic level here is substandard. Unemployment is SUPER high. Im sure there are towns that are pretty nice to live in but where I have been....its nothing to write home about. Dont even get me started on the beaches. They are pretty much a trashcan and the water isnt any better. If you have a choice between here and somewhere else....pick the latter.
First of all Ocean Springs is not a Suburb of Biloxi. Ocean Springs is a town of its own. Second of all I love the Coast, it has So much to offer without ur Negativity! And if dreaded so much like u say u do, THEN MOVE!! STOP COMPLAINING GET UP OFF UR ASS AND LEAVE!. AND DON'T COME BACK! JUST THAT SIMPLE!
Don't go to Clinton ,Madison or Brandon....if you stay there you're going to end up doing most of your shopping and everything else in Jackson. There's alot of petty crime and murder there! Don't go there...trust me.
I have lived in Clinton for 9 years and can't think of 1 thing I would need to go to Jackson to shop for. If I can't get it in Clinton we will go to Madison or Flowood.
If you want to live in Mississippi and get the real experience don’t live in any of these towns. Stay an hour or more away and then visit them once a year so you can hate them all over again!
Another state added to our list as we continue to go through the 50 states, where should we go next? Let's us know below!
Would love to see Hawaii and alaska!!!

As a native Mississippi resident I can positively say almost all of us don't want anyone moving here. Instead of moving to Mississippi use that energy, time, and money to make your state a better place to live in.
I see this a lot from conservative State residents. I am from Pennsylvania (all my life) and making it "better" is a constant fight against the idiots in Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia. I want to eventually move somewhere that I don't have to work/fight to make it better.
Trust and believe no one is interested in moving to MS so breath
Mississippi actually would benefit from outsiders moving in. There aren’t many opportunities there and just because you’re doing well your state is not and continues to be the poorest. You’d be a fool to chase away opportunities for your state. I live in the suburbs of New Orleans and half my coworkers drive from Mississippi because of no good paying jobs. People drive all the way from Jackson and Hattiesburg just to make a living so that means things need to change not stay the same 🤷🏾♂️
@@edlee2336 great read brother... thanks.
You must be smoking that stuff if you want to move to Mississippi. Eew😠
Apparently, you’ve never been to Oxford!! It would have definitely made your list!!!!!!!
I am moving, but i think that rent of house is high in oxford :/ .
True, I'm from Oxford and wouldn't live anywhere else! Yes rent is high here.
You didn't mention Ecru,Pontotoc Oxford, Tupelo or Baitsville these are great cities for the average person to find work.
WHO AND WHAT??? Where does those towns exist???
Ford plant, Nissan, gmc, Nike, fed ex, Valero, Hershey, Kellogg, post, Volvo, railroads, etc...plenty of jib, money and homes in northern, Mississippi. Some of the best schools
It's Batesville
You show pictures of Brandon with plenty of water around, Brandon is about 150 from the Mississippi gulf coast.
A lot of Brandon sits on the Ross Barnett Reservoir. The dumb thing around here is that there are two parts to Brandon. There's Flowood Brandon, and then there's Brandon Brandon. Flowood Brandon is what's on the Rez.
Ocean Springs is not a cheap place to live. Average rent for a 3 br/2 ba house is over $1200. Everything else is accurate
In oregon with a family of five.. we are looking at over 500k just for a simple , comfortable home...
Outrageous.
We need a change...
Come to Mississippi! We are known for having lower living costs. We have hot summers and severe weather, but the winters are mild and the landscape stays green year-round. If you come to the southern half of the state we also have a lot of great swimholes, creeks with nice white gravel bars along the sides. People make fun of our state for things but there are hidden treasures here if you will just give Mississippi a chance.
Not dissing Mississippi, but you might like to Alabama more because it has larger cities. North Alabama is especially nice.
Poplarville I. Southi state education. Pearl. River collage great place
I noticed that two of the cities are Suburbs of Jackson! No wonder Jackson's going down the drain!
I go around Jackson
Those towns listed are not suburbs. They are independent cities with their own government etc. I'm a former Mississippi resident who remembers when they all used to be relatively small towns. I still have cousins in Brandon, Starkville and rural areas. All have their pluses and minuses. Jackson is just a disaster area. Totally inept city council and Mayor. U.N. should just go f itself.
Helpful! I'm looking for a new home, new State, New city.........
Hattiesburg is NOT the 2nd largest city in the state.
Yes it is
Gulfport is the 2nd largest city.
Exactly!!. And dis is why all of that crap he saying about the nicest cities to live in I don't believe it was in the right order. He couldn't even get the second largest city correct, so whats makes anyone believe anything he says in the video?
I just went to ocean springs to buy a small house I looked at a small 1000 SQ ft house on a 75 by 100 it was rotted the floors were eaten by termites and the windows were rotten basically the house should be knocked down and the asking price was a rediculous $390,000
That's more than twice what he said 🤣
@@timtam9673 can you imagine if it was 2500 SQ and a half acre of property it would be at least a 750,000 to a million
I know, its gotten ridiculous. I wish the casinos would all leave. I liked it much better before they mucked up the water and destroyed the coast.
@@mccaffreybeverley450 yall wanted the devil, and he came
How is Corinth? I like it quiet. A nice golf course or two and friendly people
$169k for a house in Clinton 😂😂😂 let’s all take a moment of silence for that price that has been long gone for some years now. I’ve lived in Clinton my entire life, and a house for that price will not be in very good shape, and need major renovations. $250k + is the average now. Clinton is a great place to live though, quiet most of the time, schools are some of the best in the nation, etc. Jackson is starting to spill over though, which is a huge blow to the city.
I wish Jackson would be revived. I know several people from there that are very successful and they don’t have much nice to say about it. They usually refuge to Oxford on the weekends.
I was thinking the same thing as far as prices for housing. I was thinking what year is this? $980 for rent? It sure is a whole heck of a lot more than that now 🤦🏾♀️
Hattiesburg has nosedived since this video. Crime is rampant. Corruption is rampant. I lived there for 2 years and had enough.
Yep, I exited it quick!
Love this
Before doing a video like this, you should really invest more time into researching
Shhhh don't tell anyone!! We like our hidden gem hidden!
What about beautiful Natchez???
What about it 😆😆😆
I agree!! I LOVE Natchez! So much history, nice restaurants and the river is right there! It’s a gem for sure.
Flowood any day !!
Thinking of moving to Lucedale!
How's about the love for sale in Mississippi?
Good to know!
I wish that I could give you some really good n positive even uplifting advise..oh wait a second.. I'm planning on eventually moving out of the US
Oh ok
Good for you! That’s the dream!
Lol, I'm retiring and moving to Mexico
I would replace Clinton with Starkville or Oxford.
I word of advice, which by the way, I base my opinion on a person by their actions and not where they are from or their ethnicity. There are decent, considerate and people of good moral character all over the world. Be very cautious with regards to who will be your neighbors. I lived next to Indian computer engineering students. Ever since they moved in I have been having issues with my Wifi and computer network being hacked. Besides that, they exceeded the occupancy limits, that is the number if people allowed to live in the apartment. Which causes excessive noise at all hours. Additionally they liked having phone conversations outside which usually tends to be in front of other tenants apartments which can cause a disturbance. They were asked not to disturb other tenements but they still kept doing it. When they used the laundry room they leave the clothes in the machines over night and sometimes even days, and do not clean up after themselves once they are done. Additionally, They are not very clean in general. Once an animal did poo near their front door and they never cleaned it up. This attracted flies in my home. It was a mess. Once they finally moved, everything was better. And the fly problem in my home went away. Unfortunately they have some kind of superiority complex where they think they are better than everyone and don't need to be considerate, or respect other people's privacy, and that superiority complex leads them to feel that they don't have to clean AKA pick up after themselves and that they should get everything for free or at a cheap price.
Smh.. So I guess it's all indians that are like dis is what ur basically saying? See dis is how typically another way racism is started, by giving heads up on a certain type of people or race of people there way of living and u should stay away in other words and All pyronoid watchful to those kind of people. ONLY IN MISSISSIPPI ONLY IN MISSISSIPPI SMH.. So Sad.
What does that have to do with living in Mississippi? Call your landlord, police if they’ve actually done something wrong or move?
@@sdirvin1 That's how Racism start, judging a diff race from there own. And brain washing others thinking to believe that dis particular group or race is the problem, when actually there the ones who are actually the real problem and also creating the problem!. They are Just pathetic!.
I was in Ocean Springs Thanksgiving weekend
Love My State...And Liveing in the Sipp🤘🤘🤘
I live in Woodville Ms.not bad if you're retired
This is just the pretty parts of MS😭
Why?

No shade to any of these cities but I definitely heard a lot of wrong stats
Somewhere in the country. Towns want a fee for everything.
Don't live in ocean springs but I live close and yes it is nice
So you're saying the only good places to live is around the Jackson area??

I'm from BRANDON! GROWING EVERY DAY!🤗
long gone is the day of having only 1 stop light. back in early 70's brandon's population was 2500. Crossgates to Brandon was all woods along hwy 80.
I moved to Mississippi (Gulfport) 3 years ago and I have never dreaded anything more than moving here. Ocean Springs is a suburb of Biloxi and casinos are the ONLY major industry. The cost of living is NOT below the national average. A run down 2br house will run you about $1100/m. Crime is high. Mississippi is the poorest state in the country. The acedemic level here is substandard. Unemployment is SUPER high. Im sure there are towns that are pretty nice to live in but where I have been....its nothing to write home about. Dont even get me started on the beaches. They are pretty much a trashcan and the water isnt any better. If you have a choice between here and somewhere else....pick the latter.
First of all Ocean Springs is not a Suburb of Biloxi. Ocean Springs is a town of its own. Second of all I love the Coast, it has So much to offer without ur Negativity! And if dreaded so much like u say u do, THEN MOVE!! STOP COMPLAINING GET UP OFF UR ASS AND LEAVE!. AND DON'T COME BACK! JUST THAT SIMPLE!
Literally none of the pics are from the cities
My sister'in Mississippi has to pay $30 a month used to
No mention of Biloxi or Pass Christian or Saucier. Shhhh…..our secret
What about Biloxi?
Is the only one beautiful in Mississippi!
The only that I ever hear about MS. Is negativity.
You watch to much television.
Down town is great if your loaded with money
That's 100% Trump country. The whole Gulf Coast is.
Awesome!, no thugs, no libertards, low crime.
Interesting. I didn't know there were any good places to live in Mississippi!
Add Columbus MS.
Don't go to Clinton ,Madison or Brandon....if you stay there you're going to end up doing most of your shopping and everything else in Jackson. There's alot of petty crime and murder there! Don't go there...trust me.
I have lived in Clinton for 9 years and can't think of 1 thing I would need to go to Jackson to shop for. If I can't get it in Clinton we will go to Madison or Flowood.
Lived in Clinton my whole life and Clinton has nothing
Just glad my town is not on here lol or near Jackson.
If you want to live in Mississippi and get the real experience don’t live in any of these towns. Stay an hour or more away and then visit them once a year so you can hate them all over again!
Any, "Best Places to Live in Mississippi" list that doesn't include Oxford loses credibility.
I am very shocked that Moss Point missed the cut again...
Moss Point is the worst on the coast
😂😂😂😂 WHY!!??
And Gautier 🤦🏽♀️ rude 😂
Miss Point, Gautier, and Pascagoula are the absolute worse! So violent and deadly
Miss Point isn’t safe
Laurel Mississippi
If you don't stop that!🤣🤣
@@jbenz7554 laurel is actually nice
@@therealmccoy2004 downtown is cool but the rest is overdue for a remodel
@@jbenz7554 naw north laurel, out west is straight
Lived in MS for 17 years. Left in the Spring of 2023. No Way Jose. Will never go back.
Ocean Springs is Da Nice City on da Coast. White Ppl area. Real chilled and friendly. Noooo violence
