Count: 0 — There are no incorporated cities or towns in Mississippi that start with the letter Z. Searches of authoritative sources such as the U.S. Census Bureau, the Mississippi Municipal League, and the U.S. Geological Survey’s GNIS return no official municipal names beginning with Z, making this an empty entry in an otherwise exhaustive A–Z reference of Mississippi places.
Understand that municipal names reflect settlement history, languages, and local customs, and the letter Z is simply rare in those naming patterns for Mississippi. Rely on official incorporation lists and Census place definitions when compiling this list; those sources define what counts as a city or town. Expect no results because no community completed the legal steps or gained enough recognition to register an official municipal name that begins with Z.
If you need near-matches, check for places that contain the letter Z within their names, historic or variant names in GNIS, or small unincorporated hamlets that are locally known but not officially incorporated. Consult the U.S. Census Bureau, Mississippi Municipal League, and GNIS for verification, and broaden searches to county place lists or neighboring states when a Z-name is required for research, travel planning, or genealogy.
