Located along the Mississippi Sound, Biloxi combines coastal living with Southern hospitality. The city's waterfront features eight casino resorts offering entertainment, dining, and gaming. Spanning 43 square miles, Biloxi showcases beaches, the historic Biloxi Lighthouse, and Keesler Air Force Base. The rental market offers options at various price points, with average monthly rents ranging from $735 for studios to $1,493 for three-bedroom homes, showing year-over-year increases between 1.4% and 4.1% across different unit sizes.
The city's position along the Gulf Coast provides excellent fishing opportunities for spotted seatrout, red drum, and other Gulf species. Maritime traditions remain strong, highlighted by the annual Blessing of the Fleet ceremony that honors the local shrimping industry. The Ohr-O'Keefe Museum of Art, designed by architect Frank Gehry, adds to the city's cultural landscape.
