My wife and I are relocating to Northern Mississippi and are thinking about moving to Olive Branch. She will likely have to commute to Memphis and I will be working in Oxford. Can anyone recommend apartment complexes or real estate agents in the area?

You may want to also post this in the MS forum, if you haven't already. You might be able to find a different town in between Memphis and Oxford that would lessen the commute (for one of you). Olive Branch isn't that far from Memphis, but Oxford is. I have known students to commute from Oxford to Memphis for work, and it was always about a 1.5 hour drive for them during rush hours. I don't think commuting from Oxford to Olive Branch would be TOO much shorter of a drive. The problem is there are just 2 lane roads around Oxford, which slows traffic considerably.

Thanks. We were also thinking about Hernando or Holly Springs.

I would rather commute a little longer (to Oxford) and let my wife have a shorter drive. Olive Branch seems reasonable for that scenario.

Thanks for the info. But I was thinking a little more specific. Any apartment complexes in the area you can recommend? Any parts of town to avoid?

Well I know that the Olive Branch Police Dept is a machine. They don't play or have time for criminals. I don't know much about the N. Miss area, however I have friends who live in Olive Branch..the property value is increasing, land is worth more...so I don't think you can't lose there. It has tons of shopping and easy access to surrounding areas using 302 and 78 and 55. Sorry I can't be as specific you might want to check the MS forum.
