Life in Hernando, MS Is A Wonderful Experience 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) Here in Hernando we enjoy a quiet, peaceful existence among wonderful neighbors and nature at her loveliest. Living in Hernando gives us access to some great schools where our kids are happy and free to be themselves. We have a very low rate of crimes, even in these modern times ...Read More when it seems there is trouble everywhere. If you like beautiful weather you will love it here. This is one of the best areas in the state for good weather. The homes here are lovely and historic, with beautifully maintained grounds. A lot of older families live here, where they have been for generations.

We have some interesting attractions and things to do close by, our biggest claim to fame of course being Graceland, the home of Elvis Presley. People come from all over the world to tour the lovely mansion and pay tribute to the King of Rock n Roll. We also have the breathtaking Crystal Shrine Grotto, a man-made cave for touring and exploring, and the National Civil Rights Museum. If you're looking for an amazing place to live, this is it!
