University is where the spirit of a flagship campus shapes everyday life. At the heart of the community, the University of Mississippi sets the pace—morning classes and afternoon research give way to evenings under the trees of The Grove, and fall Saturdays that light up Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. Residents enjoy first-class arts without leaving town, from touring orchestras and Broadway tours at the Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts to rotating exhibitions at the University Museum. Literary history lives around the corner at Rowan Oak, William Faulkner’s home and grounds, perfect for a reflective walk.
Everyday convenience is strong, with the shops, galleries, and eateries of Oxford just beyond the campus edge. Travel for business or visiting friends is simple via the University-Oxford Airport, offering quick access for private and charter flights.
Families appreciate nearby, well-regarded schools such as the Oxford School District and the Lafayette County School District. Housing options span modern condos and townhomes, classic cottages, and quiet streets tucked into the trees, giving you the choice between an energetic campus-adjacent address or a more laid-back setting in surrounding Lafayette County.
