Troy offers a quiet, close-knit pace with big-outdoor energy, set in the southern stretch of Greenwood County. Residents enjoy an easy drive to shopping, dining, and healthcare in Greenwood, lakeside adventures near McCormick, and the storied streets of Ninety Six, giving this rural town a surprisingly connected feel.
Weekends tend to start on the trail or the water. The Long Cane Ranger District of Sumter National Forest surrounds the area with miles of hiking, horseback, and OHV routes, plus seasonal hunting and birding. Anglers launch at Lake Greenwood State Park for bass and crappie, while paddlers find quiet coves perfect for sunrise floats. History buffs head to Ninety Six National Historic Site, where Revolutionary War earthworks and ranger talks bring the backcountry frontier to life.
Education is a point of pride, with Troy served by Greenwood School District 52, known for community involvement and strong extracurriculars anchored in nearby Ninety Six. Daily living is straightforward: light traffic, plenty of room for gardens and workshops, and a calendar that revolves around local ballgames, church suppers, and forest-season traditions. Routes like SC 10 and SC 246 make commuting to larger employers simple without sacrificing the peace that comes with starry, quiet nights.
