Blythewood is a small town but has some excellent local options for food and fun. It is a great place to live because the people are friendly. It has grown a lot in the last 20 years but there is still a small town feel to it. There are some great options for schools both public and private. We are just far enough away from the big city of Columbia. It is convenient however to all the down town stuff to do such as art exhibits, baseball, the state fair and a wonderful zoo! My family has lived here for 17 years and raised 4 children.
It’s a beautiful town growing into a big city just like it’s big brother, Columbia. A lot of lovely neighborhoods. Too many. While the community makes you feel at home in every Kroger and Chevron, the street are constantly clogged with cars, making it near impossible to go anywhere outside of your own driveway.
Blythewood is a small town on the outskirts of Columbia, South Carolina. It is rich with beautiful homes of all shapes and sizes, and beautiful sightseeing spots, such as Doko Meadows. Blythewood also has a diverse community of people from many different backgrounds.
If I had to name something that I would like to see a change in concerning Blythewood, I would say the amount of activities available. Sure, there are a variety of small fast food chains and local grocery markets within the city limits. However, the town is so small that I find it hard to explore other options as far as how I would choose to spend my weekend. The local park is very beautiful, but I feel as though it would be beneficial to see more things to do there.
