What it’s like
The place. Naylor is a very small community in Lowndes County, Georgia, where neighbors are likely to know one another by sight. Homes here are typically worth a good deal more than you might expect for a place this size. Winters are mild, with January the coldest month and cool days and chilly nights, while summers turn properly hot, with July the warmest.
Work. Residents mostly work in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, in restaurants, hotels and entertainment, and in professional and business services. Across Lowndes County, South Georgia Medical Center, Lowndes County Schools and Valdosta State University are among the largest workplaces. Unemployment across the county is a little lower than a year ago, and the number of jobs there has held steady.
Things to do. Banks Lake National Wildlife Refuge, a protected area, is a short drive away and suits a quiet day outdoors. A longer drive brings you to Wild Adventures, an amusement park, and to the Lowndes County Historical Society Museum, a good stop for local history.
