If you are not from Columbia, S.C. you might be interested in knowing what neighborhoods are in the area. It can be said that there are 6 main areas that people refer to in general when speaking about the East side of the river: Downtown Columbia, Forest Acres, Arcadia Lakes, Garners Ferry Area, Fort Jackson, and Northeast Columbia. When referring to the West side of the river, there are 6 areas that are commonly referred to: Cayce, West Columbia, Springdale, Irmo, Lake Murray, and Chapin. Downtown Columbia is definately growing. Having grown up here and lived here for 40 years, I have seen Columbia go from a non growing, more traditional area to a more progressive area interested in new building endeavors, new parks (we have a new baseball stadium for Gamecock Baseball), and new ways of life. The Vista is the hot spot downtown. This is where all the popular night life is located; where all the interesing clubs, bars, etc are within walking distance of each other. As far as living quarters downtown, there are these new, trendy loft apartments everywhere. Many of these loft apartments are new, but some of them are built in remodeled, historic buildings. Some cool downtown neighborhoods in my opinion are Governor's Hill, Laurel Hill, Shandon, and Melrose Heights. Going East and away from the bustle a bit, you come into Forest Acres. This is where I grew up. Forest Acres is kindof a bubble in which everything you need in life just about is contained in that area. You can ride for hours on the wooded, windy, well planned roads and never leave "acres". The police are known to do a really good job, it is secure and relatively low in crime. There are older houses there, newly remodeled houses of all sizes, and new homes to choose from. There is a "Fresh Market", a Publix, a really good Pancake house, great schools (for kids, Satchel Ford Elementary is wonderful), and great people. ...
