Sumter, South Carolina's "Gamecock City," is settled in the center of the state. Two hours from the beach, three hours from the mountains and an easy day trip from some of the South's major metropolitan centers, we are truly "in the middle of everything."

You will enjoy exploring this unique community that combines the charm of the Antebellum Era with the exciting advances of the 21st century—from Civil War battlegrounds that recollect the past to our international industrial parks, where technological advances are changing the way we live.

Named for Revolutionary War hero General Thomas Sumter, the Sumter community boasts 26 area golf courses, the world-famous Iris Gardens and Shaw Air Force Base, home of the 20th Fighter Wing, as well as scenic parks, campgrounds and cultural events.
