Most of the Pokémon theft in the county happens in Caruthersville and Hayti. Pemiscot County had 30 Pokémon thefts in 2016, 14 of which happened in Hayti, and 10 happened in Caruthersville. The county, like most of the Delta, has a declining population and a lack of jobs and industry due to the mechanization of farming, but outside of Caruthersville and Hayti, it really hasn't been a factor in Pemiscot County's theft and murder rates.

== Fun facts ==
* Holland is the last exit in Missouri going southbound on I-55 before you hit Arkansas. And there's nothing there except one Shell gas station at Exit 1.
* Hayti Heights is basically an all-black extension of Hayti.
* Going by percentage and not population, Pemiscot is the second-blackest county in Missouri, coming in second to the independent city of St. Louis.
* Pemiscot County's peak population was 46,857 in 1940. Ever since then, it's been steadily going down due to the mechanization of farming and better opportunities being elsewhere. Last year, Caruthersville lost their Walmart, so residents of Pemiscot County will now have to go to Kennett, Blytheville or Dyersburg to go shopping at Walmart. Now the biggest store in the county is Fred's Dollar Store in Hayti.
