What this means

Map listings as of September 2026 show 3 real estate businesses in Perry County. That comes to 6.5 for every 10,000 households, 83% below the U.S. rate of 38.5.

At $12,758 per household (23% below the U.S. average), households in Perry County spend about $59.3M a year on rent and homeowner costs. Housing spending per office is 4.6 times the U.S. figure. That figure is all rent and homeowner costs, used as a measure of housing demand; it is not money real estate businesses take in.

There is no official count of businesses with payroll classed as real estate agents, property managers, mortgage lenders and inspectors in Perry County: counts under 3 aren’t published. Official counts list 11 one-person businesses without payroll.

Population estimates show Perry County grew 1.1% from 2020 to 2025, slower than the U.S. (+3.1%). With 3 real estate businesses on map listings, Perry County isn’t given a market score: the score needs at least 5, since one listing more or less would swing it.

How Perry County compares

The same measures for Mississippi and the whole U.S. Housing spending per listing divides all rent and homeowner costs by the listings counted: a measure of housing demand for each business, not money any of them take in, so it is shown against the U.S. (100) only. Households per establishment divides households by the official count.

What is the Groundwork market score?

The Groundwork market score runs from 0 to 100 and compares a market with others of its kind for one business type: states with states, metro areas with metro areas, small-town markets and counties with their own. It weighs household spending per competitor (35%), households per business with payroll (25%), population growth (20%) and spending power (20%), each ranked against those peers. A higher score means that, taken together, the market has more household spending and more households for each business already there, faster population growth and more spending per household than similar markets. It describes a market, not any one site or deal. Perry County has no market score for real estate businesses: the score needs at least 5 on map listings, and it has 3.
