Although Mississippi's economy has traditionally been more agriculturally based than those of many states, the state has experienced industrial growth in recent years. The economy in the southern part of the state near the coastline was severely disrupted by [[Hurricane Katrina]] in 2005, but has begun to rebound. [http://www.usm.edu/afterkatrina/Baugh.html]
