Community of Greer

Greer Community, SC

Neighborhood or HOA

Population: 91933

Summary

The Community of Greer is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains – in the heart of the state’s fast growing Upstate region. The City of Greer, a sprawling landscape lying primarily within postal zip codes 29650 and 29651, anchors this Community. Greer City was established in 1873 as a station along the railway line between Charlotte and Atlanta and now ranks as a downtown historic district in its own right. Lakes Robinson and Cunningham lie to the North of this Community, while a major transportation corridor borders the South with Interstate 85 and the Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport. Greer Community has the best of both worlds with the feeling of a small town, and the amenities of a larger city close by.
