What it’s like
The place. Springhill is a small city in the north of Webster Parish, Louisiana, with a population that skews older than the country as a whole. Incomes run below the parish's, and more residents than in many places live below the poverty line. Homes cost far less than in most of the country, and few adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are mild and short, summers are hot, and a good deal of rain falls through the year.
Work. Most residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by shops, the building trades, and restaurants, hotels and entertainment. Walmart, Springhill Medical Center and International Paper are among the largest workplaces in town. The typical commute is short, and few people work from home. Unemployment in the parish is a little lower than it was a year earlier, and the parish has added jobs over the past year.
Things to do. The Sulphur River is a river a longer drive away, and Bodcau Wildlife Management Area is a protected area also a longer drive off, both suited to time outdoors. For history, the Battle Mound Site is an archaeological site a longer drive away. Each of these takes some planning, as none is close at hand.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Springhill’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. 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 Webster Parish and the Minden, LA metro.
