Belfast Real Estate Market Booms as Out-of-Towners Flock to Find a 'Hawk Tuah' Queen
BELFAST, TN - The once quiet, affordable town of Belfast, Tennessee, has officially become the hottest real estate market in America, not because of jobs or industry-but because men are desperately trying to move closer to the source of 'Hawk Tuah' greatness.
Local realtors report that property prices have tripled in just three months, driven by single men from across the country looking to settle down with a woman who can spit with precision.
"I had a guy from New Jersey call me and say, 'I don't care what the house looks like, does it come with a Hawk Tuah girl?'" said local real estate agent Brenda Lou McGraw, shaking her head.
Belfast landlords are doubling rents on trailer parks and rebranding apartment complexes with names like "Spitfire Suites" and "The Hawk Tuah Luxury Lofts."
Meanwhile, longtime Belfast residents are torn between cashing out or gatekeeping their spit-based culture.
"We don't want no city boys coming in here thinking they can handle a real woman," said local resident Darlene Tucker. "If your idea of tough is ordering oat milk at Starbucks, stay out."
Despite the surge in demand, realtors warn hopeful buyers that just moving to Belfast does not guarantee a 'Hawk Tuah' girlfriend.
"You still gotta earn it," said matchmaking expert Cletus Ray. "Step one: learn how to fix a carburetor. Step two: don't flinch when she spits."

Highlight:
Belfast, Tennessee’s 788 people fill 266 households, averaging 2.69 each. Launched in 1836, its Irish moniker bloomed with a shop in 1838. The 1952 F1 tornado—three dead, 166 injured—left a historic scar. Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" fame has since ignited a $500K surge, shifting Belfast from fields to fanfare. At 94.9% white, diversity’s a whisper, but growing. Median income’s $39,676, modest yet climbing with tourism. Welch, once a factory worker, now symbolizes a town that thrives on unexpected twists, its past and present entwined.
