DeSoto County lies directly south of Memphis in North Mississippi and includes the towns of Southaven and Hernando. These towns have become popular destinations for Memphians who want to escape from the bustle of city life to raise their families in the suburbs and still have an easy commute into Memphis. Desoto County is only about 15 minutes from the Tunica casinos, making Riverchase Apartments a great location for casino employees.
Southaven, located just South of Memphis, is known as “The Top of Mississippi” because it is located near the southern border of Tennessee. This fast-growing community has the highest median income in the state of Mississippi. Less than a mile from the city’s bustling new Silo Square development, and just across the street from Snowden Grove Park and Amphitheater, Southaven’s quaint Town Square is home to The Lofts Apartments, along a variety of restaurants and shops. Located near Baptist Memorial Hospital-DeSoto and I-55, other MRG apartment communities in Southaven include Foxhaven, Rocky Creek and Southcrest Lake.
Hernando has received national recognition for being a great place to live, and The Magnolias at Hernando Apartments are a great example of why. This town has four times been named a “Playful City USA”; named to CNN/Money Magazine’s “100 Best Places to Live”; and featured in CNN’s “Great American Small Town” series.
