Living in West Columbia, SC
Originally named Brookland, West Columbia was chartered in 1894. Despite going through many disasters in its past (a 1905 fire and several floods), the city has always rebuilt itself in ways that make it stronger and more sustainable.
Today, West Columbia residents enjoy easy access to employment opportunities in a number of fields. Some of the region's top employers include the State of South Carolina, nearby Fort Jackson, which offers positions to military personnel as well as civilians; Palmetto Health Systems and the City of Columbia. The area is also home to several universities. Sterling University, as well as Midlands Technical College and the International Community Seminary are all located in town, and offer excellent academic opportunities for students in a variety of fields. Due to the high number of students, anyone looking to move into a West Columbia apartment may want to secure a new place before the school year starts, as apartment options could become slim once September rolls around.

The West Columbia River Walk shows off the city's beauty, as well as its pristine waterways. In nearby Columbia, residents can visit a number of attractions, including the Riverbanks, Zoo and Garden. Sports fans can watch the Columbia Blowfish, a Class A baseball team, during the season as well.
