Guffport(where they don't pronouce the L) and Biloxi have huge advantages over D'Iberville, yet the ville is getting the all the stores and restaurants
to move out there.
In central Mississippi, Ridgeland, simply because you have access to Jackson Metro money base without having to deal with archane Rankin County laws or a bitch mayor.

I would really like to invest it in Starkville for the area off of 182. Especially clean up the powerlines in the area and work on the roads. I would want to
keep Starkville looking nicer for visitors as well and to keep MSU high on peoples interests that are looking for a college to go to. But when I move from here
I cant say that I will feel the same

Unless you are talking about a very small town. Up it to $5m and you can make an impact in most places.
I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists
who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'. Kurt Vonnegut, Timequake, 1997

500k should be more than enough to buy the POS house on the North-East corner with plenty left over. Even if all I did was tear it down the commercial
potential for that piece of property may be enough to get a ROI and I'd be doing the city a favor.

Just north of Madison, tons of subdivisions there, lot of land.

If I just had $500k laying around to invest just anywhere in MS, I'd probably spend it in my hometown - little nowhere place called Thaxton. You may have
driven by in on the way to Oxford on Hwy 6. But it's got a real old school gym, like 75+ years old - kind of reminds you of Hoosiers. I always thought
it'd be neat to fix that place up, restore it so it's like a brand new 1950s era gym. It's still usable, but you feel like you might fall through
the floor if you jump in the wrong spot.
It'd be a complete waste of money, but it'd be neat to have a nice old school gym like that. |

something that would cater to all those people in all those neighborhoods out there - dry cleaning, liquor, oil change place, etc. having no money is a problem, though... |

But I would probably buy something in downtown Jackson. I think you'll see a return in a decade or so.
