HERE City is your trusted source for real South Carolina news.
South Carolina is a state of remarkable contrasts and compelling stories. From hurricane season along the crystalline Myrtle Beach coastline to the economic transformation of the Upstate, from the University of South Carolina Gamecocks versus Clemson Tigers rivalry that divides families to the military heritage anchoring communities like Beaufort and Fort Jackson—South Carolina's narrative is rich, urgent, and evolving.
HERECity covers the state's most consequential developments: Boeing and aerospace manufacturing in Charleston, BMW's groundbreaking Spartanburg plant, the booming tech corridor reshaping Rock Hill and the Midlands, and the state legislature's decisions affecting every household. We cover university sports passion (one of the nation's fiercest rivalries), coastal preparedness as Atlantic hurricane season approaches, and the tourism industry that drives billions in economic activity.
Our reporters understand South Carolina's regional personality—the Lowcountry's historic grace, the Midlands' political centrality, and the Upstate's entrepreneurial energy. We report on real estate booms in Hilton Head and Rock Hill, the state's diverse workforce, top-rated school systems, and the quality of life that makes South Carolina home.
