Tunica is the county seat of Tunica County in Mississippi's north delta. Tunica was once a poor town, but the economy was revived when gambling was legalized and the hotel and casinos were built. All nine casinos were built on barges in the Mississippi River. Tunica is becoming a popular destination for those who like to golf and gamble because four of the casinos cater to golfers. It also has the Tunica National Golf and Tennis Complex, which is an affordable 18-hole course with a 50,000-square-foot clubhouse and a large practice area.
