Every year, RV snowbirds contribute millions of dollars to the coast economy by migrating to the south in the winter. In Mississippi the contribution is $269 million and in the 4th U.S. Congressional District it is $69 million. They bring business to RV Parks, restaurants, casinos, and more.
As Sun Herald writer Mary Perez relates in her article: “About the first of October the snowbirds start coming through,” said James Lee, whose family owns and operates Indian Point Campground in Gautier. The first time they stay two or three days. The next year they stay a month or two. “By the third of fourth year they’re here the whole winter,” he said. Usually they go home in April."
