ABOUT MISSISSIPPI

Far from being the biggest or most populous state in the USA, Mississippi is not the smallest or least populated either, sitting in the middle of the rankings for both. It has a population of more than 3 million, less than a tenth of which can be found in Jackson, the state capital and the largest city in Mississippi.

Mississippi is unique in the sense that such a small fraction of its population resides in its largest city, with the rest of the population spread out between dozens of other cities and towns, all of which have less than 80,000 residents and many of which have less than 20,000. The most noteworthy of these include Gulfport, home to the Seabees Navy fleet, and the casino city of Biloxi, which is popular with tourists from across Mississippi and other states.

Low Averages

The state of Mississippi has a Gross Domestic Product of just under $100 billion which, like its size and population, is neither here nor there on the overall leaderboard. However, Mississippi does have a notable per capita income, and not a positive one as this particular statistic is one of the lowest in the United States. In 2006, it was just $26,000 and although it has increased since then, it is still not on par with most other states. The main reason Mississippi is one of the poorest states is because it was heavily reliant on cotton production, and it has struggled to branch out into other areas when this industry began to wane.
