Kentwood, LA

Set in the rolling dairy country and pine woods of northern Tangipahoa Parish, Kentwood offers a quiet, rural lifestyle right along the Mississippi border. The community has a few well-known claims to fame as the hometown of Britney Spears and the source of Kentwood Springs water, but daily life here centers on small-town routines and open space. It gives residents a peaceful country setting while keeping convenient highway access straight down Interstate 55 to Hammond for larger stores, hospitals, and dining.
