Vidalia is an easy, pleasant place to spend multiple weeks: a small Southern city with a walkable historic downtown, local cafés, parks and a friendly community that makes short-term living comfortable and interesting. Housing, groceries and casual nightlife are available nearby, so you can settle into a routine between shifts.
For weekend variety, college-driven Statesboro is about 45 miles away and offers more dining and nightlife, and Dublin is roughly 43 miles away with regional services and events.
