I live in Ocean Springs. I do not find it the least bit dangerous. It’s a very nice town. One of the best if not the best in Mississippi. Crazy people are everywhere though. Just last year a woman was held up at gunpoint in the OS Wal Mart parking lot. It’s better to be safe than sorry. If my wife feels like she needs me at night when she needs to go somewhere, then I will accompany her.

I agree. Crazy people don't stop at a city limit sign because of that town's reputation and past history as being safe. There are people everyday that for some reason or another snap. Even Beverly Hills has a police department for a reason. If my wife needs to go to Walmart or grocery shopping I will usually drive her there, drop her off at the door, and then pick her up at the door. That saves her having to find a parking spot out in the back 40 of the lot and walk all the way to the store which is where most of the assaults tend to happen. I would feel horrible as a husband if she asked me to do that and I refused for whatever reason and then something happened to her or one of the kids. During the day she may go on her own, but at night it's not an option. I'm definitely in the better safe than sorry boat.

True, but your odds of being a victim are much lower in a city like Ocean Springs than in some other cities.

Yeah, so I wasnt trying to attack anyone personally or speak poorly about any poster's relationship. If you feel your lil lady needs to be driven to a store when the sun goes down, have at it.
I simply think its odd to choose to live where a woman must be driven to a store and dropped off out front if the sun has gone down and that the only reason I can think of that would make it worth living in such a location is if family were there.

To each their own n all.

Didn't take it personally. And I actually live in Starkville so not like I'm representing south Jackson, but crime seems to be on the uptick here, and I'm not so sure it is the same town it was when I was in college here back in the 90's. And I know, you can probably say that about every town.

What are "certain cultural issues"?
No father in the home
Liberal judges who undermine the police
Street life that encourages non-civility

That's just 3, but obviously not the answer you are baiting to get.

Far too many Dr.'s are handing out prescriptions to powerful drugs way too easily.

This X 1000. Good thing Marsha Blackburn stopped the DEA from going after the pill pushing doctors or else we might not have an opioid crisis to talk about...

(This is not a Republican versus Democrat political post, Marsh Blackburn is just a giant *****.)

I will continue to ask, in the politest way possible, why people with mobility continue to live in places they find dangerous. Family is about the only reason I could see justifying this.
A grown woman should be able to travel her town at night without needing a man at her side. Jesus, even typing that sentence sounds absurd.

I find winding two lane state highways dangerous at night. I find living more than 10 miles from a level 1 trauma center dangerous. I find living in a place labeled tornado alley dangerous. I find my fat intake dangerous.

None of this compares to the danger of a woman driving herself.

Not really. Most places are much safer now than they were 20 years ago. Like, way, way safer. There has been an uptick the last few years that could be a blip or could be the start of a trend, but most places are safer but there is just much more awareness about bad things happening.

Whitepicketfenceville is right next to Winchestertonfieldville, IA. Good one, Babe Bennett.

Where I live is in a relatively small city(compared to the metros of many states) in a predominantly rural agricultural state with a few population pockets. My state has a cost of living that is well under the US median. Housing, food, utilities, health, and transportation are all under the US median cost of living. Income is right at the middle of the states- it is hardly a wealthy place.
Its actually eerily similar to the state of Mississippi in terms of land use and population spread.


I am not sure why calling where i live whitepicketfenceville would be bad- it is hardly some exclusive location that people are knocking doors down to live in. It actually helps my argument that I dont understand why those who have the ability to move would choose to stay in a dangerous place, family aside.

Weird. Wonder why crime is so much higher in Mississippi?
