I posted this on the SC board,but I see it's dead.

Hi, my family may possibly relocate to SC. The job would be in Orangeburg so I am looking for advice on areas surrounding (heading north).Need a good school system for when my boys eventually start school, and I like the suburbs not too country. I am used to things being nearby when I want to go somewhere lol. Pretty much anything in the area I circled on this map. We don't want to ha e a super long commute. Tia!

If you don't hear anything on here, you'll definitely have a bigger audience if you post on Parenting.

We live about 20 miles north of Columbia. I wish I knew more about the area, but we haven't been here very long. I hope someone in here is able to help!

So DH says if you are going to work in Orangeburg, don't want a long commute and want a suburb type environment then you are really kind of limited to the northeast part of Orangeburg near the country club. The best school in that area is Orangeburg Prep, you wouldn't want to go with public schools. If you were to branch out a bit to the Lexington area and commute then your public school options open up a bit. Best of luck with your move!

I'm north of that area; sorry! Not familiar with Orangeburg but Lexington schools do have a good reputation if you decide to live that far north.
