Lee County, Mississippi

Lee County is up in northeast Mississippi. Tupelo is the star of the show here, famous as Elvis Presley’s birthplace. But there’s more to this place than just the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll.
The county’s a mix of city life and country roads. You’ve got the Natchez Trace Parkway cutting through, perfect for a scenic drive. Folks here are proud of their manufacturing heritage.
It’s not all work though. Weekends might find you fishing at Lake Lamar or catching a show at the Tupelo Civic Auditorium. The county’s been growing steadily, attracting new businesses and families.
