Aiken county is a great place to live with lots of things to see, experience, and do. With a community centered around horses it's an equestrian's paradise!
Aiken is home. Aiken is not a big place with tall buildings and or shopping malls. We don't have much to do for the teens around town but I have enjoyed the trees, horses, and the warm welcome of those who have been here most of their lives. All places can approve, especially on how we treat one another as a whole, but I feel everyone is always welcome in Aiken!
Aiken is all around a safe, quiet, and all-inclusive town. I live in a rural area of Aiken County and i could not be more happy where i am. I tell people how much i love Aiken all the time, it is a fun place to visit and a great place to eat and shop!
