Known as the birthplace of the blues, Mississippi not only offers great music, but it also features Gulf Coast beaches and delicious Southern foods. However, what the Magnolia State doesnāt offer is an abundance of jobs. Unfortunately, Mississippiās unemployment rate is among the highest in the entire nation: 5.4% as of late 2019.
