Meadville Cleanup and Restoration

Meadville – Chess Country  

Meadville is situated in the southwest corner of Mississippi, just north of the Homochitto River. Surrounded by the Homochitto National Forest, the town began as an agricultural trading center for the county and was largely settled by farmers. Today, this area remains mostly rural and has a population of about 500 people. 

In March of 2017 Meadville was featured in a story on the CBS news magazine 60 Minutes. The segment, entitled Chess Country, told the story of Dr. Jeff Bulington, a teacher from Memphis who moved into a local school to teach the students chess. While his chess program was originally met with some skepticism, it gained popularity in the area and some of the students went on to compete in the Mississippi State Championships. 

Property Damage Concerns in Meadville

With its location near the Homochitto River and National Forest, Meadville properties are susceptible to multiple sources of potential damage. The rural landscape allows for forest and wildfires to grow and spread rapidly, bringing threat to local homes, businesses, and other structures. The river can potentially flood and cause water damage. Additionally, the State of Mississippi is famously part of Tornado Alley, meaning this town is at risk of tornadoes passing through.
