What it’s like
The place. Weir is a very small town in Choctaw County, Mississippi, where neighbors are likely to know one another. Homes here cost much less than across most of the country, and household incomes in the county sit a little below what is typical nationally. Not many adults hold a four-year degree, and only a small number of people work from home.
Work. Residents work mainly in schools, hospitals and social care, followed by shops, manufacturing, and professional and business services. Across Choctaw County, the largest workplaces include the Choctaw County school district, Choctaw Regional Medical Center and Southeastern Timber Products. Unemployment in the county is lower than it was a year earlier, and the number of jobs has edged up slightly.
Things to do. Besa Chitto Creek runs in or beside town, and the Noxubee River and Choctaw Lake, a reservoir, are each a short drive away. For a longer outing, Tombigbee National Forest is a protected area a longer drive away. Winters are cool and mild, summers are hot, and rain and melted snow fall steadily through the year.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Weir’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Choctaw County.
