Few towns balance small-town charm and big-city proximity the way Clinton does, but that's probably one of the reasons you're already living here, isn't it? Clinton's original name, Mount Salus, meant "mountain of health," and though mostly forgotten, the name remains representative of this town. Clinton offers a respite from the busier pace of nearby Jackson, giving residents the chance to commute easily into the city each morning and retire home to the calm of a small Southern town each night.

With a character-filled downtown and an event calendar that belies its small size, Clinton has an admirable sense of community. Red Brick Roads blends music, film, food trucks, and local brews for a lively end-of-summer event that offers something for everyone, while the Fall Dinner and a Movie series promises calmer fun for the cooler months, entertaining residents of all ages with beloved films and local food to brighten the shortening days.

On non-festival weekends, Clinton's restaurants, breweries, and shops will make it hard to choose exactly how to fill your free time. Whether you're a homebody who can't wait to return from work and curl up with a good book or you attend every town event you can make it to, don't let concerns about safety cloud your sense of well-being in Clinton. Investing in an ADT monitored security system will give you the reassurance you need to feel truly at home in Clinton, even if you've just moved in.
