Welcome to Florence,
the “Magic City” in the hub of northeastern South
Carolina commonly called the “Pee Dee Region”. Originally
founded as a railroad town, Florence has emerged into a center
for industry, medicine, retail, education and culture and is now
the seventh largest city in the state. Cutting edge health care
services draw many people to the area. With two major hospital
systems, McLeod Health and Carolinas Hospital System, Florence
continues to keep its residents in the forefront of medical technology
and service. If you are a NASCAR fan, you will not want to miss
nearby Darlington Raceway. While Florence County residents enjoy
some of the lowest property taxes in South Carolina, they appreciate
the gracious lifestyle and affordable housing options located
throughout town. With all the advantages of a growing metropolis
but with the charm of Southern hospitality, the Greater Florence
area blends rural, suburban, commercial and industrial advantages
for the 126,000 lucky people who have chosen our community. Visit
Florence and we think you’ll agree that our area is a great
place
to live.
