Lot Description
Beautiful Cleared Lot in the city Laurel, Mississippi.
Nine states operate without a state income tax. Collectively, those nine states dramatically outpace national averages when it comes to population growth, economic growth, and income levels. They also have seen greater than average growth in revenue collections to fund the government. Mississippi is about to be tenth state on the list which comprises Florida, Texas, Nevada, Tennessee, Alaska, Washington, Wyoming, New Hampshire, South Dakota.
Southern states like Florida, Texas and Tennessee experience an influx of people from other states because of no income tax. Governor Tate Reeves of Mississippi is adopting the same approach to attract economic and population growth to Mississippi. This population growth will cause an increase in house demands and builders will scramble for lots like this to buy and build on.
Real estate is still the safest class of investment because there is limited supply and it can't be created artificially.

Pros of Living in Laurel, Mississippi
Laurel, Mississippi has experienced a renaissance in recent years, particularly due to the popularity of Hgtv's "Home Town" show. Let me share some genuine advantages of making this small Southern city your home:
1. Exceptional affordability - Laurel's cost of living sits significantly below the national average, with housing costs that can be 30-40% lower than many comparable communities. This means your dollar stretches further for both everyday expenses and long-term investments.
2. Architectural treasures - The city features remarkable historic architecture, particularly in neighborhoods like the Historic District. Many homes date back to the early 20th century lumber boom, showcasing Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, and Craftsman styles that would cost millions in larger markets.
3. Downtown revitalization - Over the past decade, Laurel's downtown has undergone an impressive transformation. The once-quiet main street now hosts boutique shops, restaurants, and public spaces that balance small-town charm with contemporary amenities.
4. National media spotlight - The Hgtv show "Home Town" with Ben and Erin Napier has brought positive national attention to Laurel, creating tourism opportunities and showcasing the city's charm to audiences across America.
5. Strong community bonds - Laurel exemplifies the close-knit social networks often found in smaller communities. Neighbors tend to know each other, community events see high participation, and there's a palpable sense of collective investment in the city's future.
6. Minimal traffic congestion - Unlike metropolitan areas where commuters might spend hours weekly in traffic, Laurel residents typically enjoy short, stress-free commutes. This translates to more personal time and lower transportation costs.
7. Natural beauty access - The nearby Tallahala Wildlife Management Area offers over 28,000 acres of outdoor recreational opportunities, including hiking, fishing, and wildlife observation. The region's pine forests create a beautiful backdrop for outdoor activities year-round.
8. Favorable climate - Laurel experiences relatively mild winters, with daytime temperatures often reaching the 60s even in January. This extended warm season allows for outdoor activities nearly year-round, although humidity in summer months should be expected.
9. Tax advantages - Mississippi generally offers lower property tax rates compared to national averages, and Laurel's affordable property values compound these savings for homeowners.
10. Manufacturing employment base - Companies like Howard Industries provide substantial employment opportunities in manufacturing, offering stability to the local economy and career paths that don't necessarily require advanced degrees.
11. Strategic location - Laurel sits approximately 30 minutes from Hattiesburg (home to the University of Southern Mississippi), 90 minutes from Jackson, and about 2 hours from coastal areas, providing access to additional amenities, educational institutions, and recreational opportunities.
12. Cultural institutions - The Lauren Rogers Museum of Art houses impressive collections including Native American basketry, European and American art, and Japanese woodblock prints-cultural assets that would typically only be found in much larger cities.
13. Community events - Annual traditions like the Loblolly Festival celebrate local heritage and bring the community together. These events strengthen social bonds and create shared experiences that define life in Laurel.
14. Healthcare accessibility - South Central Regional Medical Center provides comprehensive healthcare services locally, meaning residents don't need to travel extensively for quality medical care.
15. Southern culinary traditions - Laurel embraces Mississippi's rich food culture, with local establishments offering exceptional Southern cuisine from traditional recipes often passed down through generations.
16. Relaxed pace of life - The city operates at a noticeably slower rhythm than metropolitan areas, reducing stress factors associated with urban living while encouraging deeper community connections.
17. Family-centric environment - Laurel's community structure prioritizes family activities, safe neighborhoods, and youth development programs, making it particularly attractive for those raising children.
18. Historical significance - As the setting for "The Free State of Jones" (both the historical events and the 2016 film), Laurel offers connections to fascinating Civil War-era history and unique stories of resistance.
19. Safety advantages - Many neighborhoods in Laurel experience lower crime rates than state and national averages, particularly for a city of its size and economic profile.
20. Real opportunity for impact - In smaller communities like Laurel, individual citizens can more easily make meaningful contributions to community development, civic projects, and local governance, creating a sense of agency and purpose that's harder to achieve in larger cities.
These factors combine to make Laurel an increasingly attractive option for those seeking quality of life improvements without the high costs and stresses often associated with more densely populated areas.
Laurel provides a mix of affordability, charm, and community-focused living, making it an appealing option for people seeking a peaceful and meaningful lifestyle.
