Porch swings are especially popular in Southern states. With mild to hot weather year-round in many regions, spending time on porches is especially popular. That said, I think it’s a mistake to label porch swings as purely Southern. Porch swings of different styles have gained traction in the Midwest, regions of the East Coast, and other parts of the United States. Modern porch swings have also expanded who uses them. Porch swings add aesthetic appeal, value, and personality to the home, which is all the more reason to embrace the trend.
