If cities were stones, Simpsonville, South Carolina, would be a shiny golden nugget. There’s just something special about this quaint little suburban town on the outskirts of Greenville. It’s located in the heart of the fabled Golden Strip, part of a thriving metro area. Surrounded by mountains and lush greenery, it’s one of the most beautiful, postcard-perfect cities in the state, but it’s not just the location that makes it so extraordinary.

Many people say that Simpsonville is a truly magical place with special powers of its own and a source of good luck for its 20,000+ residents. After all, wouldn’t you want to live in a town where you can just walk into the local KC Mart and win the lottery? It was one of the largest jackpots in history ever awarded to a single recipient—$1.5 billion, to be exact, and yes, that happened here in 2019. Or if you are a PGA golfer, would you like to win the U.S. Open? Local resident Lucas Glover did that in 2009. Or perhaps you like bowling and would like to be named PBA Player of the Year like another resident, Tommy Jones? The fact is, Simpsonville seems to be perpetually churning out incredibly talented people from all walks of life. From movie stars to NASCAR drivers, UFC fighters to professional NFL and MBA players, look no further than the rolling green hills of Simpsonville.

Of course, you don’t have to be a Packer or a Padre to enjoy the perks that Simpsonville has to offer. Employment opportunities are bountiful in this town and always have been thanks to the diversity of industries in the area. Schools are excellent, the crime rate is low, the weather is downright enviable, and you have the benefits of small-town life coupled with the convenience of having larger cities like Greenville and Charlotte just a short drive away. Add in an abundance of southern charm and countless recreational venues, and it’s easy to see why everyone here might feel like a winner.

When it comes to entertainment, there’s no shortage of things to do in Simpsonville either. Catch a show at the Amphitheatre­—or just take a walk—at spectacular Heritage Park. Get wet at Discovery Island Waterpark. Have a relaxing spa day at Soulace or Arya, or a drink or two at Sweet Sippin. Do some shopping at Mason & Magnolia and then grab an outrageously delicious sandwich at the Mad Cuban or some classic homestyle southern fare at Stella’s.  Catch a movie at the Regal, and for the more adventurous, how about a tour at the Trail Blazer Survival School? If history intrigues you, don’t miss the Upstate Pinball & Arcade Museum, check out the Simpsonville Clock Tower, a historic landmark that features an antique water tower, or venture to nearby Greenville and visit the Confederate Museum. No matter what you are interested in, it’s here for you to explore.
