The phrase “Jackson, the dumbest town in America” is a tongue-in-cheek reference to a 2013 article by website Cracked.com. The article listed Jackson, Mississippi as the dumbest town in America based on a number of factors, including the city’s high crime rate, low education levels, and poor economic outlook.
The article was met with widespread criticism, with many people pointing out that it was based on outdated and inaccurate data. However, the phrase “Jackson, the dumbest town in America” has stuck around as a way to poke fun at the city’s reputation.
