North Gulfport Neighborhood Guide
North Gulfport occupies the quieter, more spread-out reaches of the city, running north of 30th Avenue toward the Harrison County line between Highway 49 and Three Rivers Road. The area draws families who want room to breathe, with residential streets where kids play outside and pickup trucks are standard fixtures in driveways. It serves the Orange Grove school community and carries a genuinely suburban feel without technically crossing out of city limits. The tradeoff is distance: the Gulf beach is farther away than it is from most other Gulfport neighborhoods, and residents make peace with that drive as part of the deal. For those who want low-key city living with a little more elbow room, North Gulfport delivers exactly what it promises.
