And Springfield is a college town too... More diversity in STL and KC.

Mississippi is a great place to live if you are the kind of person that love to be on the low side ,just relaxing and taking care of your own business which is what i like to do ,other than that it's a place to just chill and what i like also if i want to go some place else i just go ,there are some places you can go and have fun.

There are areas in Mississippi that are mostly white or mostly black, and there are areas where it is closer to 50/50. There are counties in Mississippi that are 85-95% white, and there are some that are 85-95% black.

Much of Mississippi is more diverse as far as white and black, but there are fewer of others. College towns such as Oxford, Starkville, and Hattiesburg will be more diverse, having international students and students from around the US.
