The ‘Magnolia State’ will surprise you with its variety– wide open spaces, Gulf beaches, charming cities, quaint small towns and a taste of the Deep South. Rivers are a way of life here, the Mississippi River forming the entire western border of the state. Two of the major tributaries enjoyed by thousands of residents and visitors are the 200 mile meandering Yazoo River and the 155 mile long Big Black River. Waterfront property and fishing real estate are highly desirable options along the state’s hundreds of rivers, ponds, streams and lakes. Outdoor recreation is a way of life here– Mississippi has more than one million acres for public hunting, with nine National Wildlife Refuges and 36 state wildlife management areas.
There are 26 miles of sandy beaches on the Gulf Coast offering extraordinary coastal property near the exciting city of Biloxi and its dockside casinos offering gaming and world–class entertainment. Outdoor enthusiasts love the dozens of diverse and beautiful state parks and nearly 150 golf courses. College sports are abundant and wildly popular with collegiate conference action in football, basketball, soccer and baseball.

The state has created a unique service designed to help active adult seniors locate their ideal retirement setting. A number of "Certified Retirement Cities" throughout Mississippi have met criteria important to retirees: affordable cost of living, low taxes, quality medical care, recreation, educational opportunities and a welcoming community.
