Living & working in Taylors

Taylors is an unincorporated suburban community and census-designated place in Greenville County, South Carolina, situated between the cities of Greenville and Greer. The residential housing stock consists primarily of mid-century single-family brick ranch and split-level homes, alongside newer planned subdivisions such as Pebble Creek and Linkside. Daily commercial activity and retail options are concentrated along Wade Hampton Boulevard, which serves as the area's main transit and retail corridor. For outdoor recreation, residents utilize nearby Paris Mountain State Park, Lake Robinson, and the greenway trails of Brushy Creek.

The local economy is driven primarily by manufacturing, healthcare, and educational services, transitioning from its historical roots as a textile manufacturing hub. The former 1920s textile mill, Taylors Mill, now functions as a commercial complex housing dozens of small businesses, including Carolina Recycling Company, Indventech, and dining options like The Farehouse. Remote workers and freelancers utilize local workspaces such as Taylors Commons and Junto Coffee. Commuters traveling to regional employment hubs such as Greenville or Greer rely on major roadways like Wade Hampton Boulevard (U.S. Route 29) and nearby Interstate 85. Public transportation is available via Greenlink's Route 508 bus line, which operates hourly between Taylors and the Greenlink Transit Center in downtown Greenville.
