Killian Homes for Rent

Killian, located about 10 miles from downtown Columbia, offers a unique blend of suburban living and natural surroundings, where it's not uncommon to see wildlife such as coyotes and deer. The neighborhood features a variety of home styles, from 1970s-era ranch homes to contemporary houses with two-car garages, and newer developments like The Villages at Lakeshore, which include community amenities such as pools and playgrounds. Killian is conveniently situated between downtown Columbia and Fort Jackson, making it a popular choice for military families and commuters. The area is poised for job growth with the upcoming Volkswagen electric vehicle plant in nearby Blythewood, expected to bring 4,000 jobs. Residents have access to numerous big-box stores and fast-food options along Killian Road, including Kroger Marketplace, Starbucks, and Eggs Up Grill. For more extensive shopping, The Village at Sandhill is just 5 miles away. Golf enthusiasts can enjoy The Spur at Northwoods Golf Club, while the Blythewood Doko Rodeo and Columbia’s Koger Center for the Arts offer additional entertainment options. Killian Park and Sesquicentennial State Park provide outdoor activities, including a splash pad, mountain bike trails, and pedal boat rentals. Despite the convenience of The Comet public bus system, most residents rely on cars, leading to increased traffic during rush hour. The community is served by Richland School District 2, with schools that have mixed ratings. The Columbia Metropolitan Airport is approximately 25 miles away, and Amtrak’s Silver Star Line offers travel options from downtown Columbia.
