Waynesboro balances small-town ease with surprising access. Set along U.S. 84 and U.S. 45, the community serves as the seat of Wayne County and offers straightforward commutes to regional hubs like Laurel, Hattiesburg, and Meridian. Downtown storefronts, local eateries, and seasonal events create a friendly rhythm, while essential services and everyday conveniences stay close at hand.
Outdoors, residents find room to roam. Anglers and paddlers head for the Chickasawhay River, while hikers and campers explore the piney woods of the De Soto National Forest. Families make the most of community ballfields and youth leagues, and gardeners tap into workshops and resources from MSU Extension – Wayne County. Healthcare needs are covered locally at Wayne General Hospital, giving peace of mind without a long drive.
Schools are a cornerstone here, with the Wayne County School District supporting academics, arts, and athletics—from elementary classrooms to career and technical education. Housing options range from tidy in-town cottages to acreage on the edge of the woods, appealing to first-time buyers, growing households, and downsizers alike. With affordable prices, a friendly pace, and quick routes to jobs, college campuses, and medical specialists in nearby cities, Waynesboro is a practical move that still feels personal.
