Hernando Apartments for Rent

Discover Your Apartment in Hernando

Hernando, Mississippi, is the hometown of just about every blues musician. Okay, maybe not everyone who sings the blues hails from this neck of the woods, but there are quite a few that call (or have called) Hernando home, including Frank Stokes, Jim Jackson, and Robert Wilkins. Though Hernando is at the northern edge of the state and not on the delta, the birthplace of the blues, it certainly does seem to be the place where the blues grew up.

Simply Hernando

Hernando may be in the decidedly Southern state of Mississippi, but it’s actually pretty progressive. The city has worked hard over the last few decades to promote healthy eating habits, an active lifestyle, and a love of the environment. In fact, we’d go so far as to say that Hernando is one of the cities that will help usher in the next era. This is also a quickly growing community; the population leapt by over 100% from 2000 to 2010, proving that this is a great place to live!

The National Trust for Historic Preservation has named Hernando a ""Main Street Community."" Along with the title, Hernando has received funding to keep its old-timey architecture and ambiance intact. Hernando has used this money to restore its historic downtown square, including its charming courthouse, 1925 water tower, and walking trails. We think that’s a great use of the funds, especially since this city is into healthy living.

Hernando has been named a ""Playful City USA,"" three times. Why? Because of the city-wide programs that are designed to get children moving, grooving, and making friends in the traditional, off-line way. We've heard of street cred, but this city has some serious playground cred!

Where to Have Fun in Hernando

It wouldn't be very nice of us to mention how fitness, play, and exercise are all big in Hernando without telling you where to go to get involved in all the fun. Let us point you to the Hernando Sports & Fitness Complex. The complex has a walking track and outdoor exercise equipment. If you’re looking for a place to play, there are a number of other parks around.

You can’t live on broccoli and jogging (well, you can but it’s boring) so you'll be delighted (if not mildly fattened) to know that Hernando celebrates the winter holidays with a ""Cookies with Santa"" event. Children can get their picture taken with the big guy and then sip hot chocolate and munch on cookies with him. The whole brouhaha comes highly recommended.

In the mood for a little culture? The DeSoto County Museum is a great place to visit. This museum showcases artifacts and exhibits from the area and specializes in Civil War-era history.
