About Kiln
Located in Hancock County about an hour northeast of New Orleans, Kiln (often called "the Kill" by locals) offers a peaceful, wooded setting bordered by the Jourdan River and quiet coastal bayous. The town began as an old timber settlement, but today it is known for its spacious properties, relaxed country feel, and tight-knit community spirit.
Outdoor living is a major highlight for residents, with great fishing, boating, and kayaking right on the river. Hancock High School sits right in the heart of the community, anchoring the local school district. Living here gives you the quiet privacy of a rural neighborhood, while keeping you within an easy drive of the restaurants and beaches in Bay St. Louis and the broader Gulfport-Biloxi area.
