This has me asking so many questions. They claimed Louisville grew in population. Did they come from the surrounding areas? If so, which ones? Mississippi as a whole lost population according to the 2020 census. The bigger places around Louisville would be Meridian, casinos, and maybe Jackson. I doubt folks are moving from those spots but I don’t know. I suspect it’s people coming in from the surrounding county/rural areas?
Are the companies able to pay more because of the lumber market this year? What about other sawmills in Mississippi?
What about timberland owners? They haven’t reaped the benefits of sawmills, because there’s like 50 years worth of timber inventory in the American South (though it appears Q3 is picking up! https://www.forest2market.com/blog/southern-timber-prices-hit-14-year-high https://www.forest2market.com/blog/southern-timber-prices-hi...)
And does this just raise the wages or is there some profit sharing going on?
