Meggan Brown was apprehensive about moving to the Mississippi Gulf Coast after growing up in the bustling city of Houston, Texas. Her fiancé Hayden Switzer was a long-time coastal native and looked forward to returning to his roots. He knew that once Meggan experienced the fabulous lifestyle afforded by the Coast, she would love to live there as well.
Once settled, Meggan became enamored with the area’s small-town charm. It took little time to adapt to the move, especially in the close-knit community. “Everyone knows each other, and the people seem more friendly and hospitable. They gave me a warm welcome and made me feel like a member of their family.”
To Meggan’s surprise, the Coast has many more amenities than one would expect in a smaller town. The slower pace of life, with less traffic, noise and pollution than a large city, was something Meggan found enjoyable. Fewer cars on the road and smoother navigation made commuting a delight compared to struggling with big city rush hour traffic. “When we go to dinner or an event, I love that we don’t have to wait an hour or more in line as we did in Houston,” Meggan said.
She quickly applied as an Executive Assistant for a local home-building company and began working in Gulfport, America’s most affordable beach town. Meggan uncovered the excellent home values in Mississippi’s coastal areas and soon started searching for a home. After realizing how much property they could afford with the lower cost of living on the Coast, the couple built a beautiful house in Ocean Springs, Mississippi.
