You and I both know I wasn’t referring to the suburbs straight south of Nashville or anything in Mississippi in regards to right outside of Memphis.

Mississippi literally ranks last in everything.
Mostly to do with population. Mississippi has some good private companies and has Sanderson Farms which could be a Fortune 500 lister. MS is a large manufacturer in the auto and aerospace industries, it's also one of the biggest shipbuilding states for the Navy. There are also lots of smaller companies based here with worldwide presence.

Columbus GA has as many as the entire state of Alabama (and will surpass Alabama if TSYS continues to do acquisitions)

Peavey Electronics in Meridian is one of those private companies that you mentioned.
They have produced music electronics, guitars, speakers, mixers etc. for groups and companies all over the world for 50+ years.
To cite one example, they provided all the sound equipment for the Beijing Olympics back in 2008.
So while MS gets pooped on quite a bit , we are actually much better off than people realize. Maybe no Fortune 500 companies but many successful homegrown businesses that are doing well.

I got a flash for you Hon. Those ompanies are located in Atlanta, not Georgie.

I’m going to blow your mind with this one but Atlanta is actually located within Georgia.

That's how I discovered that I prefer Skippy.. lol
Around 30 years ago, I purchased every brand on the shelves and dug in. Had never tried Skippy before then.

Skippy is the best, bar none.

The plateau is awesome. It has a ridiculous number of outdoor options, and is reasonably priced.

It’s not going to. The city is broke and trying to suck the county down with it.

Your link is outdated. 2018’s list has 12 for Tennessee.
