Nicknamed “The City of Soul,” Jackson is truly the soul of Mississippi. Located in the center of the state, Jackson is both the state’s capital and most populated city with just under 175,000 residents. Seniors are attracted to assisted living in Jackson because of the area’s low cost of living, numerous cultural amenities and warm weather.
Named after President Andrew Jackson, the city’s history began in 1820 when the Choctaw Nation ceded the land to the United States Government. Undergoing many changes over the centuries, Jackson has evolved into a modern city, recently named Third “Best Bang-for-the-Buck City in America” by Forbes.com and voted one of the “Most Livable Cities” in the country.
A city rich in culture and history, Jackson is home to a number of museums including the Smith Robertson Museum and Cultural Center, which celebrates the history of African Americans in the South, and the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame and Museum, which has been named one of the Top 10 “Most Amazing Baseball Museums in America” by ESPN.
The city is a center for the arts, and residents of assisted living in Jackson enjoy performances by the Black Arts Music Society, Mississippi Opera, Mississippi Symphony Orchestra, three ballet companies and more. An integral part of the Mississippi Blues Trail, a unique state-wide historical program denoting famous places in Blues History, Jackson is home to more markers than any other city in the state.
Seniors enjoying assisted living in Jackson can easily connect with others in the community through programs, events and activities offered by the Jackson City Division of Senior Services.
Adults age 55 and older can receive health screenings, special transportation and participate in a number of fun recreational activities such aerobics, line dancing, quilting and organized field trips.

The 429-bed hospital has been on the cutting edge of medicine, often the first in the state to offer the newest treatments. It operates core centers of excellence in bariatric medicine, cancer care, emergency care, diabetes management and surgery.
