Scott County is located in the central portion of Mississippi. Scott County was formed on December 23, 1833 and was named for Abram M. Scott, Mississippi Governor 1832-1833.
After a protracted and violent controversy between the towns of Forest and Hillsboro, it was decided by vote that Forest would serve as the county seat. Other Scott County communities include: Morton, Lake, Sebastopol, Forkville, Harperville, Hillsboro, Homewood, Ludlow, Norris, and Pulaski. In it's first census in 1840 there were 1,653 residents listed. In the last federal census in 2000 the population was 28,423.
