Retire in Brookhaven

A Homeseeker's Paradise

Historical Museum

Fast becoming the South’s premiere center for the Arts, Brookhaven historically has been at the forefront of Southern culture and charm. But it is the mix of old and new that sets it apart. Home to the state’s second longest-running community theatre and Mississippi’s only School for the Arts, Brookhaven strives to provide its residents a stimulating style of life. Ideally located on Interstate 55, it’s an easy hour’s drive south of Jackson, two hours north of New Orleans and in less than three hours, you can enjoy Mississippi’s beautiful Gulf Coast.
 
Ever since the early 1900’s, Brookhaven has been recognized as a “Homeseeker’s Paradise”. The community provides a safe haven for adults and children alike with abundant opportunities to grow educationally, culturally and artistically. This is an involved community of friendly, down to earth people who take great pride in where they live and work hard to make it better. Brookhaven offers the best of old and new-
including Mississippi’s only School of the Arts.
