What it’s like
The place. Diberville is a small Gulf Coast city in Harrison County where the typical age is on the young side. Households earn more than across the county, though a fair number of residents live below the poverty line. More people here own their homes than rent, and winters are mild, with little or no snow and plenty of rain through the year. Summers are hot, with August the warmest month.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, or in shops, with government jobs also common. Among the largest workplaces in town are a casino resort, Walmart and Target. Unemployment across Harrison County is lower than a year ago, and most people commute to work rather than working from home.
Things to do. A short drive away, the Jefferson Davis Presidential Library and Museum is a museum, and the Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge is a protected area. Fort Maurepas, also a short drive off, is a fort. Anyone wanting more water can find the Biloxi River nearby.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Diberville’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Harrison County and the Gulfport-Biloxi, MS metro.
