Dublin may not be as famous as its Irish cousin, but this small city of 16,000 in Laurens County, Georgia, has its fair share of history. A 15-year-old Martin Luther King Jr. gave his first public speech in 1944 at the First African Baptist Church and during segregation, the city was home to the Dudley Motel, which served as a welcoming rest stop for Black travelers. Since then, Dublin has cycled through booms and busts, but it is currently on an upswing with new home construction, manufacturing jobs and a growing downtown district.

Even close to downtown, the streets are suburban and quiet. Closer to city lines, empty lots are more prevalent, giving residents even more privacy. The median price for single-family homes is about $220,000.
