Why Live in Brookhaven

Brookhaven, MS, located about 50 miles south of Jackson, is a small city with a rich history rooted in timber manufacturing. Today, it is experiencing a surge in young entrepreneurship as millennials take over family businesses, contributing to the city's evolving economic landscape. Brookhaven, the seat of Lincoln County, is home to approximately 11,500 residents and is popular among retirees who appreciate its slower pace and strong community support. The city features well-preserved historic homes, including brick ranch-style houses, bungalows, and Victorian homes, some dating back to the late 1800s. Manufacturing remains a significant industry, with the industrial park housing milling, gravel plants, and metal factories. Healthcare and retail also play vital roles in the local economy. Brookhaven's downtown area, known as "the square," is dominated by small businesses, including Southern-style eateries, seafood restaurants, Mexican options, an independent bookstore, and the Brookhaven Little Theatre. The Mississippi School of the Arts, a statewide magnet residential school, offers programs in various artistic disciplines for 11th and 12th grade students. Families can enjoy City Park's playground, tennis courts, walking and biking trails, and splash pad, as well as the Bicentennial playground and spray park. The city hosts numerous community events, including a Christmas parade, concert series, and farmer's market.
