What it’s like
The place. Tremont is a very small town in Itawamba County, in northeast Mississippi. Household incomes here are well below the county's, and homes are modestly priced. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and very few people work from home. Winters are mild and short, with the coldest days in January, while summers run hot, and August is the warmest month. Snow is rare and rain is plentiful through the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in transport, warehouses and utilities. Across Itawamba County, some of the largest workplaces are Itawamba Community College, Mueller Copper Tube Company and the Itawamba County School District. Unemployment in the county is lower than it was a year earlier, though the county has a few fewer jobs than the year before.
Things to do. Nita Lake, a reservoir, is a short drive away and is the closest spot for time on the water. A longer drive brings you to the Elvis Presley Birthplace, a museum, and to the Natchez Trace Parkway, a protected area with a long scenic road and places to stop along it.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Tremont’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 Itawamba County and the Tupelo, MS metro.
