Greer

The quaint downtown is a perfect complement to the area’s abundance of parks and green spaces

Welcome to Greer

It is heralded as being a peaceful nook of South Carolina, and its residents love its hip culture among a historical backdrop.

Greer continues to attract families and young professionals with its pleasant atmosphere, opportunity for career growth, and excellent school system. The quaint downtown is a perfect complement to the area’s abundance of parks and green spaces. Neighborhoods in Greer are welcoming and provide a diverse array of home styles and sizes to fit their residents' varied needs. The architecture pays tribute to the gorgeous designs of South Carolina’s Colonial Revival and Bungalow tradition.
