Columbia, SC Directory
This directory is intended to help those who want to relocate or have already relocated to Columbia, SC.
It includes valuable local resources such as: automotive services, churches, dentists, employment, financial services,
government, home & garden, legal services, medical services, organizations, recreation & sports, restaurants & bars,
school districts, veterinary services and the weather. It is hoped that it will help your relocation go as smoothly as possible.
Columbia is the capital of the U.S. state of South Carolina. As of the 2000 census, it has a population of 116,278.
It is the county seat of Richland County, but a small portion of the city is located in Lexington County.
The estimated population for the then two-county metropolitan area (Richland and Lexington) was 516,251 in 1999. In
June 2003 the United States Census Bureau added four more counties — Fairfield, Calhoun, Kershaw, and Saluda — to
Columbia’s standard metropolitan statistical area. This should give the metro area a population of about 679,456.
Columbia recently gained a world-class sporting and event arena, the Colonial Center. This is part of a revitalization
campaign which has also brought the city a new convention center located near the arena, with a new hotel and restaurants.

What You Need To Consider If You Decide To Relocate After Retirement
What questions do you need to ask when you decide to sell your old home and buy a new home?
Where to live after retirement is a major decision. Perhaps you plan to relocate to be near family or a to be in a more favorable
climate, such as Colorado Springs. Research the consequences of such a move in terms of the basic cost of living, access to health
care, and state and federal tax obligations.
If you are considering the advantages and disadvantages of selling your home, whether or not you plan to relocate, these are some
questions to ask:
- Can we afford monthly payments for mortgage, taxes, utilities, and maintenance?
- Will one or both of us be able and willing to take care of the house?
- Is the house a suitable place to live as we grow older and less agile?
- Will we need to draw on our home equity as a source of income or credit, or would we have more options if we sold the home and
invested the proceeds?
