Vicksburg would be much higher on my list if it weren't like a little Jackson. The crime is unreal there, all kinds of crime in that town.

Damned gambling boats. It was a nice town, back in the day, though I wouldn't have included it on a list of "small towns."

Still, next time you're there, have a few of Solly's Hot Tamales, just for me. I haven't had one in ages, and I still crave them sometimes, especially at the bottom of a bowl of tasty chili. My grandmother was a friend of old Mr. Solly himself and made the best chili to go with his specialty.

I've lived here 32 years and like it a lot, but I wouldn't put it on the list. Too big to qualify as a small town to me, though that's obviously a matter of taste. Crime isn't a problem unless you win big at the casinos. If you come and win, stay until dawn!

Downtown has improved markedly since I moved here, and the military park is an excellent training ground for walkers, runners, and cyclists.

Natchez is a bit smaller and nicer in my opinion.
