A quiet neighborhood near Hattiesburg's attractions

In the southern section of Midtown Hattiesburg lies Jamestown-Lincoln, a residential community named after the neighborhood's roadways. "If you're here, you have the opportunity to do all the things," says Bree Hartfield, who works in the city. "You have colleges here, USM being the biggest, but Hattiesburg thrives without the college. It's a place where people come to relax and have an opportunity to take a load off." A part of the city's Midtown, the community is close to medical facilities, shopping, local businesses and the University of Southern Mississippi. The private Racquet Club of Hattiesburg sits in the southern corner, less than a mile from Interstate 59.
