Starkville boasts the state's largest university, a national wildlife refuge and a nationally acclaimed golf course. Residents enjoy all the town has to offer while living in safe, quiet neighborhoods.
Football days bring a sea of maroon and white tailgaters to town.
With a 1997 College World Series baseball team and a 1996 Final Four basketball team, the cheering sections fill quickly - so be sure to buy tickets early. But great college athletics aren't the only thing MSU has to offer. Performances by the Starkville-MSU Symphony and theater productions are cultural highlights the university brings to Starkville. The school also sponsors several concerts and performances by visiting artists. The Starkville Community Theater invites residents to step into the spotlight.
