Diberville, Mississippi real estate is a community located in Harrison County and is due North of Biloxi across the Biloxi Back Bay and the magnificent beach front along the Gulf of Mexico. Diberville is a member of the Gulfport-Biloxi Metropolitan Statistical Area. According to the U.S. Census Department), the populace of Diberville was estimated to be 9,486 in 2010.
The community is named after Pierre Le Moyne Diberville, who established the French Colonial settlement called Biloxi in 1699. About 300 years later, Diberville incorporated and has been a city since 1988.
Although linked by a heritage and industry that is common to both, Biloxi and Diberville shared a natural division because of the Back Bay waters which were originally linked by ferries and fishing boats. What is now Diberville was commonly referred to as North Biloxi.
Diberville didn't acquire its current name until 1927, which evolved from the dedication of the Diberville Bridge. With the completion of the bridge from Biloxi across the Back Bay to Central Avenue, commercial industries began to develop in the area. Merchants and restaurants began to develop the area called West End which became famous during the period that followed Word War II. With the construction of the Back Bay Bridge in 1973, a renewed surge of interest took place which furthered the broad establishment of businesses which caused the revival of the central business district.
With the increased pursuit of waterfront commercially zoned properties by Gaming Establishment developers and allied enterprises, brand new ventures and businesses are being developed at a very rapid rate. Over the past 10 years, Diberville has seen the development of more newly established businesses than any other city on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
