Town Description:
The City of Florence, "A City of Character!"
Florence is a city of 33,000 residents brimming with history, character, and Southern charm.
Florence is a fine example of a genteel, Southern city, with residents exuding a strong sense of community pride and Southern hospitality. This mid-sized Southern city is large enough to boast a performance theater, symphony orchestra, many ballet companies, museums, festivals, and the world-class recreation complex Freedom Florence.
Still, Florence is small enough to preserve a small-town feeling with a number of tree-lined streets and parks, all of which add to the pleasant lifestyle that people enjoy.
Florence is the largest city in the Northeastern portion of South Carolina in the heart of eight counties between the Piedmont and Coastal regions of South Carolina. The City is approximately 80 miles Northeast of Columbia, SC; 100 miles North of Charleston, SC; 90 miles South of Fayetteville, NC; and about 70 miles West of Myrtle Beach, SC.
