Indian Land South Carolina

Indian Land South Carolina

Indian Land SC is a fast-growing unincorporated area in the northern neck of Lancaster County, South Carolina (also called the Panhandle) just south of Ballantyne, Charlotte (in south Charlotte) and east of Fort Mill, SC. Its proximity to Ballantyne has enabled Indian Land to be a desirable place to live. It is also fast becoming a bedroom community of Charlotte, NC.

Centrally located along the northern border of South Carolina, Lancaster County is a prime location covering 549 square miles. A close knit community, Lancaster is virtually free of the hassles of metropolitan life, yet enjoys a close proximity to an abundance of big city business and cultural amenities.

The area is expanding immensely, with many housing developments (i.e. Bridgehampton, Legacy Park, Sun City Carolina Lakes), as well as corporate parks, being constructed.

Schools in Indian Land include Indian Land Elementary/Middle School and Indian Land High School. These schools were once not very strong, but since the recent mass movement of families to the area, Indian Land schools have seen rapid improvement. Indian Land High School recently won state recognition for being a "Red Carpet School".

U.S. Highway 521 and SC state road 160 are two major roads that run through Indian Land. With such busy roads bisecting this area, and major growth taking place now, there as been talk of Indian Land incorporating. However, incorporation would not happen for several years, according to the Fort Mill Times.

From the new, growing development of Legacy Park to the stately homes of the established Forest Hills community, the growing demand for housing has spawned a number of residential opportunities throughout the county. Numerous housing subdivisions offering friendly neighborhood settings can be found throughout the county. New patio-home and condominium developments offer cozy settings without the hassle of a lot of yard work.

An abundance of farmland provides the opportunity for anyone yearning to exercise a "green thumb." If you prefer luxury or resort housing, Lancaster County offers homes near a number of fine golf courses or at a country club - perfect spots for those who prefer the amenities associated with resort life.

Nearby super centers and grocery stores are moments away for all your family's necessities. Several specialty boutiques and department stores also make Lancaster County their home. And, no matter where you are in the county, the shopping mecca of Charlotte is a short drive. Here, South Park Mall offers distinctive shopping including large department stores like Belk and Dillards along with hundreds of small retail shops. Carolina Place Mall and Eastland Mall are other large shopping venues.
