I grew up in north Jackson and it was a good part of town and state to grow up in. There were only a few places where you had to be careful. The high school I went to was in the top 10% in the country.
It’s a different city now but as long as you stay away from the southern and western part you’ll be ok. North Jackson is still ok and Brandon to the east and Madison, Ridgeland and Canton to the north are nice places to live and is where my three siblings live.
Deer, duck, turkey and small game hunting here is awesome. Deer season, in one form or another, runs from Oct 1 to Jan 31 and in one part of the state mid Feb. The deer population is off the charts and the Fish and game dept have extended seasons time after time trying to get the numbers down.
So if you’ve been through here and you didn’t like it, don’t come back.
