Gogo's take on Hiller Park
“Go. North Beauvoir is a quiet, primarily residential neighborhood situated just inland from the Biloxi coastline and Keesler Air Force Base. Visitors staying in local vacation rentals or passing through will encounter a calm suburban atmosphere, though standard situational awareness regarding property theft is recommended.”
About the area
North Beauvoir is a low-key, tree-shaded residential community located just north of the historic Beauvoir estate and Pass Road in West Biloxi. The neighborhood features single-family mid-century ranch homes, modest apartment complexes, and easy proximity to both the beachfront and local retail corridors. Its close proximity to Keesler Air Force Base lends the area a significant military and veteran presence.
