We want to live in the Coast area, but seems Diamondhead so far as been the least trashy and redneck.

Wherever you move, make sure the school system is good and has a great special education program. MS school systems, even in good areas, can be notoriously underfunded, of course, the football program and the administrators are always well-taken care of...

I won't move to a neighborhood that has an hoa. Especially since I'm retired and on a fixed income. Without a doubt, that current hoa fee of $450 a year will increase faster than my social security check as the years fly by. 20 years from now, that hoa fee is liable to be $800 a year. I don't like being forced to pay for amenities and coveniences that I believe the city and property taxes should take care of, such as public parks and swimming pools and walking/biking paths, keeping the streets and sidewalks in good shape and cleared of snow and ice, if need be etc.

To me, hoa fee is no different than going to work for a company and then after 90 days you're forced to join a union and pay monthly union dues. It's like being forced to pay for something I will not need or use.

I don't think you know how HOA's work. My HOA fee per year is $360. My HOA can't increase your fees unless they can get 60% of the neighborhood to agree.

oh yes diamond head is very nice, but for reason, it was a high class neighborhood that wanted out of the coast and then develope into a town, because of the grocery store, hotels close to nasa. its a high dollar town, nice but your going pay. like i said, you cant fart without a permit.


another nice town, downtown bay st louis.
