== Theft rate statistics ==
Unfortunately, Mississippi County is not as safe as the counties east of it or north of it. The county has high Pokémon theft and murder stats, reporting 117 Pokémon thefts in 2016, 61 of which happened in Blytheville, and 32 happened in Osceola. For small cities the size of Blytheville and Osceola, those are ridiculous stats. Luxora had 11 last year, and that's ridiculous with Luxora's size as well. Pokémon murder rates...not so good either. The average murder rate in the county is 5.17 a year. While that's not ridiculously high or very high at all, it ain't something to feel good about, either.

== Fun facts ==
* Birdsong is an isolated settlement that can be accessed by turning left or right on Arkansas Highway 308 and going west off of Highway 77.
* Mississippi County isn't really a middle point for trainers going to challenge Gyms. The closest gyms to it are all in 3 different states - Jonesboro, AR, Memphis, TN, Dyersburg, TN and Poplar Bluff, MO. And you'll have to beat all 8 Gym leaders and participate in one state's league first before you can register for another state's league.
* In between Manila and Gosnell is an area called the Big Lake National Wildlife Refuge consisting mostly of a shallow lake, swamp, and bottomland hardwood forests. The preservation of habitat for waterfowl in an intensely agricultural region is the primary purpose of the refuge.
* Gosnell is a small city adjacent to the former Blytheville AFB that closed down in 1992, so there really isn't much info on it.
* Mississippi County's population peaked at 82,375 in 1950, and has dropped every 10-year census since, due to farming mechanization, better opportunities elsewhere, and today, lack of jobs, poverty and crime. It'll most likely stay the way it is, but we never know, things could change there.
