The city of Pass Christian is a place of history, beach days, and seafood! Residents bask in the laid-back splendor of the Gulf Coast, and living here is as much an attitude as it’s a place to call home.
Travel down Highway 90 and you’ll be in Biloxi to see the Mississippi Sea Wolves hockey team. Interstate 10 leads to a gateway of professional sports teams too…in New Orleans. The hour’s drive makes it easy for Pass Christian residents to take in a Saints game at Mercedes-Benz Superdome, or to watch the Jesters score goal-on-goal-on-goal at Pan American.
With its prime location by the sea, there’s no shortage of seafood restaurants. Golfing is a way of life here, and there are more than 20 courses in and surrounding the city. Ship Island is a couple of miles off the coast – and you have to take a ferry to get there. Once you’re on the island, you can tour the historic Fort Massachusetts ruins or spend the day relaxing on its pristine beaches.
Residents not only love their Pass Christian apartments, but also the community events that foster a friendly neighborhood presence. The Crawfish Cook-Off is a big one for the locals, as is the Crab Festival and Saint Clare Seafood Festival – are you picking up on a theme here?
The Mississippi Gulf Coast has all the best casinos on this side of, well, the Mississippi River. Some of the casinos not far from Pass Christian include Boomtown Casino, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, and Palace Casino Resort.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
