Oak Grove offers the best of suburban ease and regional energy, set just west of Hattiesburg along the U.S. 98 corridor. Residents enjoy quick access to shopping and dining, weekend fun at the Hattiesburg Zoo, and cultural and athletic events at The University of Southern Mississippi. Tree-lined neighborhoods, newer subdivisions, and townhome communities give movers a range of choices, whether you’re seeking a first home or planning to upsize, and everyday errands are simple with retail hubs like Turtle Creek Mall close by.
Schools are a major draw. The Lamar County public school system is widely respected, with the Lamar County School District supporting strong academics, arts, and championship athletics at Oak Grove Elementary, Middle, and High. Families appreciate advanced coursework, career-tech opportunities, and a spirited community that packs the stands on Friday nights and turns out for concerts, performances, and student showcases.
Outdoor lovers make the most of the 44-mile Longleaf Trace for biking, jogging, and stroller-friendly walks, and weekend escapes to area lakes and parks are an easy drive. Healthcare access is anchored by Forrest General Hospital and major clinics nearby, while commuters value proximity to I‑59 and key employers in education, healthcare, and manufacturing. Local festivals, food trucks, and live music round out a lifestyle that balances convenience with a relaxed residential rhythm.
