Where is HGTV’s ‘Home Town’ Filmed? What Laurel Is Really Like

Hint: It’s filmed in what is quite possibly the cutest little town in Mississippi.

If you’ve ever watched HGTV’s Home Town and wondered about the charming little town it’s filmed in, I’m happy to introduce you to Laurel, Mississippi.

Laurel is located in the southeastern part of the state, about 30 minutes north of Hattiesburg. It was founded as a lumber town in 1882, and is currently home to slightly under 17,000 people. And yes, it’s as welcoming and friendly as it seems on television!
