Jackson County Reviews
Rating 3.11 out of 5 46 reviews
Jackson county is an overall nice area, there are are many schools and businesses. There are a good amount of things to do for kids and adults. A few activities for kids would be arcades, water park, splash pads, malls, beaches, mini golf, etc.
Honestly, I feel like most of the activities could be completed in a week. "It gives small town vibes."

The area is great. Being positioned between larger towns like Biloxi, Pascagoula and D'iberville means that while you still get the appeal of living in a small town, you don't have to deal with the limited amount of businesses that usually come with it.
It certainly isn't a crime-ridden area. While there may be the occasional teenager checking for unlocked cars, overall it's a nice area.
