Goose Creek

Goose Creek, the municipality that Business Week called the best place to raise a family in South Carolina, is located minutes from the international tourist destination of Charleston, and the pristine beaches of coastal South Carolina. It is situated perfectly between the state's Boeing plant to its south, and Volvo's automotive plant to its north, both of which have turned the region into a hotbed of industrial growth. The city's own business community is thriving, a result of a business-friendly, can-do attitude.

And yet Goose Creek is more than a growing population. Through wise and progressive leadership, the city has achieved that delicate balance between growth and the preservation of its small town character. Residents live, work, and raise their families here, surrounded by the natural treasure that is South Carolina's Lowcountry.

This town is perfectly located between booming Summerville and North Charleston and in the center of one of Chareston's hottest spots for new industry. It is also home to Naval Weapons Station Joint Base Charleston.
