== Fun facts ==
* New Hope is a mostly residential area, so there's not really much. The town has a Dollar General, a Piggly Wiggly and a few gas stations, but that's about all. Also, nearby is the Lake Lowndes State Park, a recreational area that gets a decent amount of visitors. The town also does not have a guild, but for any expeditions or incidents that catch attention, the Lowndes County guild will come and deal with things in New Hope.
* Believe it or not, the New Hope Pokemon Center is the only Pokemon center in Mississippi, and one of very few in the country, to use Pikachus to power their center. They do have a backup generator for emergency situations, but it's still fascinating.
