About Oxford Mississippi


People have been known to visit Oxford for a three-day weekend, and find themselves staying 15 years. Walkers can't stroll around the Courthouse Square and not feel the spirit of Nobel Prize-winning author William Faulkner, feel the same sort of draw so many other writers and artists have felt. John Grisham, Willie Morris, Barry Hannah, Larry Brown and dozens of other writers have at one time called Oxford their home, filling page after page with words that seem to flow easily in this haven.

Oxford is a community whose heart is rooted as much in the promise of its future as in the richness of its past. Roots run deep here, where people are as passionate about SEC sports as they are about their favorite author. It is truly the people who will win your heart and cause you to stay.
