Known for its picturesque 19th century town square, Oxford sits in the midst of the rolling, tree-covered hills of northern Mississippi. America's national newspaper, USA Today, chose Oxford as one of the top six college towns in America, calling it the "New South Arts Mecca".
Although small in size, Oxford and the surrounding region offer a cosmopolitan blend of music, literature, and the arts along with a relaxed lifestyle, low cost of living, mild climate, a safe, scenic environment, racial and religious tolerance, and some of the state's best schools and hospitals.
