Known as the “Gateway to the Upstate,” Laurens sits between Columbia and the Greenville-Spartanburg metroplex along Interstate 26. An affordable cost of living, characterful homes and apartments, and a charming downtown area make Laurens an appealing option for anyone who enjoys the intimacy of a small town but still needs the convenience of a more metropolitan area nearby. Residents come together every year in the town square for Squealin’ on the Square, a celebration of barbecue and community complete with live music, arts & crafts, and more.
There are historic homes all around Laurens that showcase the town’s history, such as the Williams Dunlap Simpson House. Hillcrest Drive and Main Street still hold a great number of local hotspots and downhome eateries to enjoy as well. Lake Murray is less than hour’s drive southeast, and Columbia another 20 minutes past that. The up-and-coming city of Greenville is just a 45-minute drive northwest, so you’ll never be without entertainment options.
