Overall safety score

“Go with care. Midtown Jackson is an inspiring hub of local artists, craftspeople, and grassroots revitalization, but it sits within an urban core facing significant violent and property crime challenges. Visitors should stick to daylight hours, attend organized events, and remain conscious of their surroundings.”
— Gogo, on Midtown

About the area

Arts & Maker HubDevelopingIndustrial-AdjacentCar-Dependent

Located just north of Downtown Jackson, Midtown is an emerging creative district known for artist studios, maker spaces, and colorful street murals. Despite active community-led redevelopment, the neighborhood contends with elevated poverty, high housing vacancy, and municipal infrastructure strains.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
