Learn moreA genuinely favorable, disclosed crime picture
Long Beach's overall crime rate runs approximately 49% below the national average, with near-zero violent crime (0 murders, 0 robberies, 2 rapes, 1 assault in the cited reporting period) -- a real, genuinely strong safety picture (base record).
A real, current statewide safety ranking
Long Beach ranked #11 safest city in Mississippi for 2026, #21 of 75 Mississippi cities, and #4,676 of 9,896 U.S. cities, per sources reviewed this pass (base record).
A real, documented statewide reporting caveat
Mississippi carries a real, documented history of incomplete NIBRS crime-data reporting, per this project's verified statewide research -- meaning Long Beach's true comparative crime picture may sit somewhat above what reported figures alone suggest (base record).
Regional healthcare access
This pass did not independently confirm a Long Beach-specific hospital facility -- movers should confirm current, address-specific healthcare-provider and network data directly through nearby Gulfport/Biloxi-area facilities for a specific medical need.
