If you click City-Data.com at the top left of the page you can click through to most any area in any state - I believe the stats were updated to 7/2007 just a month or so ago. Hope that helps!

When I was looking for houses I looked in Pickens. I didn't like the feel of the area. It didn't look up and coming. Unless you have to live there I wouldn't. There are nice ares close by. I can't tell you about Yazoo. Never Been there.
Do you have to go to that area for a job or something?

Pickens is an area that was a big farming area and then through the 70's and 80's started dieing. In the past 5-6 years it has slowly been growing based on growth out of Jackson/Madison/Gluckstadt and the development of the Nissian Autoplant in Canton. Pickens is approx 3 miles from I-55. There are plenty of great houses for sale in the area as most of the 25-45 age range left and is slowly moving back. crime is still low with the majority being alcohol related at individuals houses. hope this helps
