About location

Few places in South Carolina have a history as closely tied to the growth of the state capital as St. Andrews. On Columbia’s western side, this suburban community has developed around Interstate 20 and the wide roads linking the Midlands with Lexington County and destinations westward. Low, wooded ground near the Broad River gives the area a distinctly inland character, while homes, shops and interchanges reflect its role within the Columbia urban area. Columbia was selected as South Carolina’s state capital in 1786, and St. Andrews remains connected to its government, employment and services. The community is less a self-contained historic center than a practical metropolitan crossroads in the South Carolina Midlands.
