2011 Map of Sumter West

About this map

Green Swamp and Mush Swamp branch through this landscape just west of the city, where mid-century residential expansion meets older agricultural patterns. The area is defined by numerous water impoundments, including Loring Millpond, New Millpond, and Booths Pond, reflecting a legacy of water management for local industry and recreation. Small communities like Cherryvale and Shaw Heights are established alongside recreational hubs such as Gamecock Raceway and the Cane Savannah Raceway. Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including Four Bridges Cemetery, Pitts Cemetery, and Saint Lukes Cemetery. The presence of the Creech Aviation Facility Airport and numerous named subdivisions like Oak Haven Acres and Sellars Heights illustrates the suburbanization of this South Carolina corridor during the late 20th century.
