Clarksdale, Mississippi (live, moving to, areas)

[brarew]

I am moving to Clarksdale at the end of July and I am very excited. Obviously it is a depressed area, but that means there is an abundance of opportunity to help bring change to the area. I hope to be a part of that, organizing talent, youth, and community to become involved in their own lives and their city. There are some very worthy people and very worthy places that just need a bit of dusting off so to speak. Look out Clarksdale, here I come!!!

Depressed area huh? Its more like a war zone goverend by Somali warlords.Good grief! I would strongly urge you to visit For awhile first. It does have some good qualities but they cannot outweigh the bad.

Tourism is improving this area over some other areas in the Delta, at least.
