Why Live in East Central City

East Central City in downtown Columbia features a diverse housing market with options ranging from ranch-style homes needing renovation to Cape Cods. The neighborhood's central location provides convenient access to Columbia's main attractions, including a variety of shopping and dining opportunities. Local favorites include the Publick House for classic pub food and the Two Notch Restaurant Neighborhood Grill for seafood and happy hour specials. Residents can enjoy outdoor activities at nearby parks such as Martin Luther King Jr. Park, Pinehurst Park, and T.S. Martin Park, which offer walking trails, community centers, and playgrounds. The area is primarily car-dependent, with major employers like the University of South Carolina and the South Carolina State House just a short drive away. The MUSC Health Columbia Medical Center Downtown is within the neighborhood, and Prisma Health Baptist Hospital is less than two miles away. Columbia Metropolitan Airport is just over 9 miles away. Homes in East Central City range from under $100,000 for ranch-style properties to over $400,000 for larger Cape Cods, with many being used as investment properties. The neighborhood's narrow streets often lead into cul-de-sacs, and most homes do not have garages, resulting in driveway or street parking. The Richland One School District serves the area, with schools offering gifted programs and AP classes.
