Population: 184,256
Located in Hinds County

A city of artistic energy and downtown fun, Jackson easily softens its cosmopolitan polish with touches of Southern charm. Jackson is the hub of state government, a commercial and financial center, and a medical center of world acclaim. It is a bustling center committed to growth, yet careful to maintain a simpler, more gentle lifestyle.

As a major distribution center, efficient transportation facilities are a must. Five major air carriers-American Eagle, Continental Express, Delta, Northwest Airlink, TWA and US Air Express are located in the Jackson International Airport and Hawkins Field. The Illinois Central Gulf Railroad and scores of major truck lines provide freight service to all parts of the nation.

Jackson has eleven hospitals, including the nationally renowned University of Mississippi Medical Center and seven universities and colleges.
