Chickasaw County, Mississippi

If you’re cruising through northeast Mississippi, you might stumble upon Chickasaw County. It’s not the kind of place that makes headlines, but that’s part of its charm. Named after the Chickasaw Native Americans, this county has roots.
The Natchez Trace Parkway cuts through the western part of the county. And the Tombigbee National Forest occupies a large chunk in the north.
Houston and Okolona share the title of county seat, which is pretty unique. You won’t find any big cities here, just small towns with big hearts.
