Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Anderson County sits in the state’s northwestern corner and is part of an area commonly referred to as the Upstate of South Carolina. Located along the I-85 corridor, otherwise known as the “Boom Belt.” The County is geographically centered between Atlanta, GA (122 miles) and Charlotte, NC (127 miles). A flourishing community with an unmatched quality of life, a thriving business community, and one of the lowest costs of living in the United States makes the Upstate South Carolina the perfect residential investment area. Anchored by the cities of Greenville, Spartanburg and Anderson, nearly 1.6 million people choose to call the Upstate home. It’s a region where more than 575 international companies thrive, where educators and industries collaborate to cultivate tomorrow’s talent, and a place with a net migration of 82 people each day. People and businesses are moving to the Upstate. More than 160 companies, large and small, have announced new locations during the last 5 years. All taking advantage of a strategic locale within the booming economic engine of the Southeast.
