Worst city in sc?

In my opinion it's my hometown of Newberry. We've had the same mayor for years and all he's done is turn the city into a ######## southern living tourist trap. I grew up in Gaffney and Newberry right now makes it look like Greenville.

Sumter for sure as worst city. As far as best small cities go excluding Greenville-Spartanburg, the chicken coop in Columbia and the Charleston area, I will cast a vote for Aiken. They have a few upscale locally owned restaurants, historic district, horse farms and polo matches. Overall a nice town.

They have some really great people, but also some, shall we say, challenges?
Got to be in with the right crowd, and if you don’t have deep roots there, that circle cab be hard to penetrate.

Glad (and surprised) that I have not seen my hometown mentioned, so I won’t call it by name, but here are some clues:
1) Some call it Sumter without the air base
2) It sounds like a placeClemson fans would love
3) It is also Woody Dantzler’s hometown

Moved to Goose Creek in 1964. Only 300 people at that time, now the biggest problem we have is traffic. Great place to live.

Since I no longer live in the great state of SC, I'll say any little burg that's an intentional speed trap. I've been pulled over in McBee and Ridgeway and I'm convinced for no other reason than I have a
NC tag.
I grew up in Anderson and there are parts of it now that you can have. The sprall from 85 inward is repulsive. But don't get me started on planning boards or town councils.
Love what they did to the downtown. More people should take advantage of it.

Mullins South Carolina. I spent two years there and I challenge anyone to spend two minutes and not come to a rapid agreement that there is no other place in South Carolina worse than right there. They stopped school for two weeks so everyone could crop tobacco. Can’t tell you what it looks like now because I haven’t been back.

Wellford use to be a speed trap. The mayor, the judge and police chief working together. They stopped me for going 55 mph in a 50 mph speed zone fined me $70 in the 80’s. Then they had a cop set up on 129 the speed limit goes from 45 mph to 35 mph in less than a mile. You really have be paying attention or or miss the change in speed. They would sit right at the 35 mph sign and pull you over. They also stomped on you Constitutional Rights without any reservations.
I know the PC went to prison for using seized drug money to buy him a new patrol car. The judge was dismissed by the state legislature and finally the mayor was voted out of office.

This was in the 80’s the laws were different then. It was illegal for the police departments to use seized drug money for their use.

It was so nice here in the 90s. Now they're clear cutting everything and building strip malls, subdivisions, and apartment complexes continuously.
Fairview Road is like Woodruff Road where we're seeing how many businesses can be crammed into one area. Traffic is terrible at times. But at least property taxes are really high.

Newberry is a southern living tourist trap that makes Gaffney look like Greenville pre southern living. I forgot about how southern living got to Greenville too.

I'm surprised nobody's saying MB or Conway, or is it implied that ole Dirty Myrtle is the runaway and we're deciding 2nd place?

Na, Newberry is FAR from the worst. Honestly coming from someone who lives in Columbia, but works in Newberry, I think it’s a great little place. They do a great job with their festivals, it’s clean, they are always working to make sure the roads are in good shape. The only problem with Newberry is that a majority of the population is against growth and that’s hurting the schools.

You won’t have to worry about any festivities or people there. There’s a ton of other dying towns in SC he could pick as well. Union comes to mind.

(Maybe the best place in SC) I hated to go to or through N. Charleston) I always thought I needed to carry and that’s from a retired Cop.

Anyone who thinks Newberry sucks is someone I want nothing to do with. You're just not a Southerner.
Worst Cities:
1. Myrtle Beach
2. North Charleston
3. Orangeburg
4. Columbia
5. Florence

good restaurants and the Newberry Opera House is fantastic! Newberry College is a nice little college! You should be thankful they are doing things that may attract some out of town visitors! Heck, Newberry even has the handyman's paradise...Harbor Freight! Many larger towns in SC don't have one!

If the whole world needed an enema I’m quite sure the tube would be inserted at Columbia SC.
