"Your average South Mississippi town."

Columbia is a small city with great potential. There are more pros than cons, but the cons are definitely there! It has a small town feel, with only being 30 minutes from Hattiesburg and about 2.25 hours from New Orleans, LA. The crime is moderate and the people are average. The air quality is great! It's a good city. Thanks.
Pros
  • small city
  • great air quality
  • close to Hattiesburg
Cons
  • crime is increasing
  • hot summers
