The central Jackson location also puts residents and their families close to the character-rich downtown square, with its local restaurants, shops, and community events. Casey Jones Village, a beloved Jackson landmark honoring the legendary railroad engineer and featuring the iconic Old Country Store restaurant, is a short drive away and a wonderful destination for family visits.
