Brookhaven, Mississippi

The diverse, local economy in Brookhaven ranges from manufacturing and distribution to technology and service related business. The economy, combined with the historic nature of the community, provides residents with some very interesting opportunities.

In Brookhaven, you can live in a Victorian treasure surrounded by massive oaks or a newly constructed home with all the latest features. You can shop in one of the area's many retail centers, browse an old-fashioned farmer's market, or go downtown where a promenade of restaurants, shops and businesses in century old architecture line both sides of the tracks of Amtrak's City of New Orleans passenger line. The choice of things to do is equally broad, covering local theatre productions and fine arts to hunting, fishing, tennis and golf.

In the midst of the rolling pine forests of southwest Mississippi, you'll find a dynamic community comprised of the City of Brookhaven and Lincoln County. With a population of approximately 12,000 in the city and 35,000 in the county, Brookhaven boasts the conveniences of a more urbanized area, yet retains an honest, small town charm.
