Congratulations!
Millington is about a 45 min drive to the airport, and a safe (I know that’s very subjective from one person to another), and a smaller town. I know several other pilots who live in the Millington area and like it. Atoka/Munford (Tipton County) is just a few more minutes north and better schools with a nice community.
We originally looked at Collierville/Germantown area, but found you can sure get a lot more house for the money in The Millington/Atoka/Munson area. I’ve also flown with a lot of folks who live in Olive Branch (Mississippi) and really like it there. Lakeland and Arlington both have lots of folks from FedEx living there, and the schools are good there.
