Madison?s excellent educational facilities enable the public and private schools to perform above the national average. There is a little something for everyone in Madison with the Madison County Cultural Center, Simmons Arboretum, easy access to the 33,000 acre Ross Barnett Reservoir and several quality golf courses.
