Biloxi, Mississippi Zoning Districts: What Do They Mean?
Zoning districts are areas regulated by specific laws that determine land use, building types, and development rules. Each district below shows its zone type. Biloxi's ordinance does not state permitted uses as citywide flags, so they are read from each district's own table rather than summarised here.
| Zone Code | Category | Area | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
RS-10 Single Family Residential Low Density | - | 5,849.1 ac | Standards & uses → |
A Agricultural | - | 2,860.4 ac | Standards & uses → |
RS-7.5 Single Family Residential Medium Density | - | 2,290.1 ac | Standards & uses → |

Biloxi regulates land through 19 zoning districts, and two of them address the shoreline directly: Waterfront at roughly 584 acres and Sand Beach at about 208.
Zoning sand beach as its own district is specific to a Gulf Coast city and unusual anywhere else. It separates the beach itself from the waterfront development land behind it, which matters where storm exposure and public access both apply.
The residential system states lot size in the code, running RS-5, RS-7.5 and RS-10 for single family and RM-10, RM-20 and RM-30 for multifamily. RS-10 is the largest district at roughly 5,849 acres.
The restricted variants are the second distinguishing feature. Agricultural Restricted covers roughly 1,942 acres alongside plain Agricultural at about 2,860, and Residential Estate Restricted covers roughly 1,757 acres alongside plain Residential Estate at about 1,464. In both pairs the restricted version is comparable in size to the plain one, so the distinction is substantive rather than marginal.
Business is graduated across limited, neighborhood, community and regional categories, together covering roughly 5,326 acres, which is a large commercial footprint for a city of this size.
A Downtown district covers roughly 132 acres and a manufactured and mobile home district about 351. Industrial covers roughly 280 acres. This is pre-development intelligence, not legal advice - verify with the local planning department before acquisition.
