Cherokee County spans across the city of Gaffney, which is the county seat, as well as the towns of Blacksburg and Smyrna. There are also several small communities between those locations that include Draytonville, Goucher, and Corinth. Cherokee County is currently home to 56,646 residents.
Cherokee County was formed in 1897 from portions of Spartanburg, York, and Union Counties. It is named after the Native American Cherokee people that once occupied the land. The Cherokee had established paths through the area that is now this County for routes to the Piedmont area of the Upstate and beyond. After migrating to the United States, the European settlers then used the set paths for exploration and trade. You can further explore the history in this county by visiting Cowpens Battlefield and portions of Kings Mountain State Park which are both sites of major Revolutionary War events.
Cherokee County is the third smallest county in South Carolina and is located between Spartanburg, SC and Charlotte, NC. There are numerous industries and businesses present that have assisted in boosting the economy for this mostly rural area. One draw to consumers is the Prime Outlet Mall in Gaffney which attracts locals and visitors alike.
