A changing city on South Carolina's Golden Strip
Mauldin is part of South Carolina’s Golden Strip, a stretch of three cities in Greenville County, along with Simpsonville and Fountain Inn. The area earned its name in the 1950s when it received a new water line, which people saw as an opportunity for development and growth.
The city has indeed grown. Mauldin has nearly 25,000 residents and continues to remake itself, adding more amenities for residents. “It used to be a passthrough city to get to Simpsonville or Greenville,” says Celeste Purdie, a Realtor with Marchant Company Real Estate. “Now there’s a developing city center and a lot of businesses, and you can still get to other places pretty quickly.” The manufacturing and healthcare industries are prominent, though some residents commute to surrounding cities for work.
Townhomes and ranch-style homes below the state median
Mauldin homes have a median price of around $290,000, slightly below the state median. Townhomes built in recent years encourage residents to get to know their neighbors. Older homes tend to be ranch-style or split-levels. “New developments have more starter homes,” Purdie says. “Things are geared toward first-time homebuyers.” The Five Forks neighborhood is filled with custom homes that are less than 25 years old and typically more expensive.
Mauldin residents who want a smaller footprint can choose townhomes located about town.
Townhouses with private back yards are popular in Five Forks.
