Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

After a lengthy court battle involving the Hancock County Court and the Mississippi Supreme Court, the City of Diamondhead, Mississippi finally became incorporated as the 111th city in Mississippi in February, 2012.

Diamondhead, MS was designed in the early '70s to be a quiet place to move for the nearby residents of New Orleans, Biloxi and Gulfport. The city has a Hawaiian flavor, naming the streets and community centers with Hawaiian names, and duplicating the architectural features you would expect to see there. Real estate here is among the most expensive in Mississippi, but lower than most areas of the U.S.

Moving to Diamondhead

The dream of waterfront living, and the related activities, fires up the imagination of even the most landlocked residents. Who doesn't dream of sitting on the sandy beach, listening to the waves splash in and roll out again, putting all their worries and troubles behind, at least for the moment. When you decide to move to Diamondhead, Mississippi, to enjoy that enviable lifestyle, you will need to do a few things first. Since there are no premier apartments in Diamondhead, you will have to set your sights on rental houses instead.

Since Hurricane Katrina in 2005, the town has been rebuilding, but it is extremely hard to find apartments, or even rental houses. Anyone contemplating the move will need to start looking well in advance for their rental homes, and be prepared to submit an application as soon as a place becomes available. You will need to make sure your credit score is good, and be ready to supply references, because rental properties do not stay on the market for long. And don't forget to bring what all landlords are looking for... money. Most places want the first month's rent plus a security deposit insuring against any damage that you may cause during your tenancy -- this amount will vary with the property and the landlord. You will also need to consider the travel time from and to your employment to your new house and factor in the cost of that commute.

Neighborhoods

Diamondhead does not have any distinguishable areas, and is considered to be "one" neighborhood. Wherever you go in the city, you will have to go by car, since there is absolutely no public transportation. There are taxis, of course, and riding your bike will usually get you where you need to go, but unless you live close to one of the few stores that pop up around town, you won't be walking. If golfing is of interest to you, you may want to live in Molokai Condo Village, which is known to be a golfing community, and is about as close to the courses as safety will permit.

Living in Town

If you like to shop, this town isn't for you. Yes, there are stores.... quaint, small town type of stores, but if you're looking for malls and other crowded places to be, you'll have to go to New Orleans, La., about 52 miles west, or Biloxi, MS., 37 miles to the east. If you prefer other activities, there are plenty of things to do in Diamondhead. There are two 18-hole golf courses, complete with the only indoor/outdoor golf academy on the gulf. The allure of the ocean brings a desire to participate in an abundance of aquatic activities, ranging from swimming to boating to scuba diving. The scenery is spectacular, and many people just enjoy the warm ocean breezes as they walk along the many waterfronts. You will find clubs to suit your interests, whatever they may be, from fishing and boating, to gardening and bridge, to dance and performing arts. No need to stay home!
