About Pearlington

Pearlington sits right on the Mississippi-Louisiana border along U.S. 90, where the Pearl River winds down toward the Gulf. Life here moves at a quiet, rural pace shaped by bayous, pine trees, and easy access to the water. It is a peaceful community for anglers, boaters, and anyone looking for plenty of open space away from busier suburban neighborhoods.

Living here gives you a secluded feel while keeping everyday conveniences within an easy drive. NASA’s Stennis Space Center sits just up the road as a major local employer, and Highway 90 provides a direct route into Slidell and New Orleans to the west or Bay St. Louis and Gulfport to the east. Residents enjoy the low-key atmosphere and affordable coastal living, with quick commutes to nearby jobs, dining, and Gulf Coast beaches.
