I’m a Jackson native and am there 10-12 times a year because all my family is there
It is not an entire no go city
The northeast quadrant is the white section
I would not advise a girl outside those areas at night
I go everywhere there but I look like a hells angel and they know I’ll shoot back but I’m still cautious
It’s like Bogota or Rio or Johannesburg
Traffic lights at night are optional and space tween cars when at light that sort of thing
She was at North State st and Fortification st

Not exactly the Congo but on the edge of it
