sumter is a beautiful place…i should know i have lived her for almost 7 years, its great…very calm but theres not alot to do around here

Coming here from a pretty good-sized city left me feeling like I’ve lost alot of conveniences. It was pretty hard for me to get used to not having alot of places to go at my fingertips. Because of this, unless you’re used to the small-town, middle-of-the-woods atmosphere, I personally wouldn’t recommend stopping by unless you’re visiting someone. It’s not bad, though. Coming from the desert, just being able to have green grass, natural water (lakes and rivers), and trees is a beautiful thing on its own. I think the big thing about Sumter is that its a great place to raise a kid, plus Columbia is only 45 minutes or so away if you’re looking for some fun. Swan Lake, woot!

My uncle used to live here. I barely saw it, but EVERY time I went, it was raining. It was worse than London.

This town consists of an airforce base, a few nice homes, trailers, chain restuarants, and an unbelievable amount of baptist churches.

I hated it.
