Ijust finished law school about a year ago at MC. I lived in Belhaven, but have lived in a few other places. Belhaven is convient and as for the crime, I neer had any problems. However, Shadowlake (Flowood) is nice and not too far. Its probably the closest outside Belhaven. Price isn't that bad and they do allow dogs. I have some friends that are in Med school and law school that live there. They seem to like it just fine. I would go with Shadowlake or Belhaven. I think there may be a few houses for rent in belhaven at the moment. Had plenty of med school friends that lived there and some still do. PM if you have any questions.

And what I call the "Death Trap"...anything between airport and 471 and Lakeland and 80....roadblock central.

Think DDM hit it on the head. If you have a little common sense you'll be fine in NE Jackson...sure folks will bring up crime, but there were also a large number of cars broken into in Laurelwood and Barnett Bend a year or two ago....like over 50 in a couple of weeks. I grew up in Fondren, my mom lives in Belhaven and I live around JA now....never been forced to eat a chittlin' at gunpoint or bit by a pit bull, just a radio stolen out of an unlocked Jeep in the driveway when I was in high school. You're right in the middle of the white side of the metro area and really close to school....around 10 minutes from 90% of the stuff you will want to do or need to go.
