Originally built on the timber industry in the late 19th century, Laurel features Mississippi's largest collection of period architecture, which has gained national attention through HGTV's "Home Town." With average one-bedroom apartments renting for around $785 and two-bedrooms at $904, Laurel offers housing options throughout its historic districts. The Lauren Rogers Museum of Art, Mississippi's oldest art museum, anchors the city's cultural scene with its impressive collection of American and European art.
Apartments in Laurel provide easy access to downtown amenities and the city's historic districts. The moderate climate features mild winters, and the location along Interstate 59 connects residents to Hattiesburg (30 miles southwest) and Meridian (57 miles northeast). The local economy centers around manufacturing, while the surrounding Piney Woods offer outdoor recreation opportunities at places like Mason Park and Gardiner Park. With its walkable downtown and variety of local shops along Central Avenue, Laurel combines historic charm with modern conveniences for renters seeking a distinctive Mississippi address.
