Hazlehurst is located in the center of Copiah County. Downtown Hazlehurst has pretty old brick streets with dress shops, specialty shops, furniture stores,
banks, offices, antique shops and restaurants. The outlying area has two shopping centers that offer grocery stores,
specialty shops and larger discount chain stores as well as motels and eating establishments. The “Old Towne Area”
features turn of the century buildings which are part of a revival of specialty, gift and antique shops within the downtown
historic district.
