Part of the ‘Home Town’ franchise, HGTV’s ‘Home Town Kickstart’ takes renovation to the next level. The show expands its horizons beyond the confines of a single house. Each episode of the renovation series features a small town in the USA, where the transformation team undertakes three projects. In every episode, a local hero’s home is given a makeover, a small business gets a revamp, and a public space undergoes a beautiful upgrade for the public good.
The team involved in the series includes well-known names like Ben Napier, Erin Napier, Nate Berkus, Jeremiah Brent, Ty Pennington, and Alison Victoria. The show aims to connect and appeal to the American audience by focusing on small towns within the country. If you are curious to know which towns have appeared on the show, here’s what we know!
