What it’s like
The place. Kilbourne is a small village in West Carroll Parish, home to a very small community where people are likely to know one another. Homes here cost well below what is typical across much of the country, and household incomes across the parish sit modestly in the middle range for the region. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and only a small number of people work from home.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, the building trades, shops, or farming, forestry and mining. Across West Carroll Parish, the largest workplaces include West Carroll Parish Schools, West Carroll Health Systems and Walmart. Unemployment across the parish is a little lower than it was a year earlier, and the number of jobs has edged up slightly.
Things to do. Outdoor and history-minded visitors have a number of choices, though all of them are a longer drive away. Poverty Point is an archaeological site, Lake Chicot is a lake, and Yazoo National Wildlife Refuge is a protected area. Winters are cool and mostly free of snow, summers are hot, and rain falls steadily through the year.

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 West Carroll Parish.
