Nestled alongside the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway, Columbus is the hometown of the legendary playwright Tennessee Williams. Anchored in a rich history, Columbus touts a bevy of grand antebellum homes and a vibrant historic downtown. The Mississippi University for Women, the country’s first public college for women, is also located in Columbus.

Known as “the City that has it all,” Columbus offers residents access to an array of community festivals and events throughout the year in addition to numerous top-notch restaurants, specialty shops, and exceptional recreational opportunities at Columbus Propst Park, Lee Park, Lion Hills Center and Golf Club, and the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway. Convenience to the Columbus Air Force Base and U.S. 45 affords many residents easy commutes.
