Mississippi Is Part Of The Shared Freedom Map Platform

A sourced discovery dataset for Mississippi Delta, hill country, timberland, Gulf-influenced rural land, homesteading, RV living, off-grid screening, and county-rule research, with county-office confirmation still pending. These pages use the same county template, scoring model, and source-first workflow as Colorado.
