Learn more about Conway
Founded as Kingston and renamed Conway in 1801, this small city sits on the Waccamaw River away from the coast and is the county seat of Horry County. Quiet and relaxing, the city is one of the most desirable places to live in around Myrtle Beach, which itself is 12 miles to the east.
Full of history but thriving in the modern era, Conway attracts people of all kinds and all backgrounds due to the pleasant climate and opportunity to live life as you choose.
Homes in Conway
The cost of living in Conway is lower than the average across the U.S. – comparatively, it is around 88% of the national average. This is seen in the cost of housing too, with the median house price being $160,000, around $71,000 less than the average for the U.S.
Although the city is over 200 years old, many new homes have been built in recent times. The communities are well planned, and homes of varying lot sizes are available to suit individuals and families alike.
Condos are often available, and the community spirit is tangible no matter where your home happens to be. Trees can be found throughout the city, leading to the nickname “Tree City”. Unlike most cities where trees are found in parks or alongside roads, some trees in Conway grow in the center of the road, leading to a driving experience like no other.
With a wide choice in homes from the historic to the modern, Conway offers a place to live that is away from the bustle of the larger cities, with a peaceful environment that offers the best of both worlds.
Living in Conway
Conway is packed with restaurants and diners, ideal for eating with family and friends. The nightlife is enhanced by many of these restaurants being highly rated, and a stroll across the Main Street Bridge is recommended as it features old-style streetlamps along each side.
The community is central to the heartbeat of Conway, with regular farmers’ markets drawing a crowd. Holiday events and summer concerts brighten the year, and for the physically active there’s always an opportunity to try running a marathon.
While not having a beach, Conway is just a short way from the coast, and the Waccamaw River adds to the feel of a coastal town. Families will be glad to know that public and private schools are available, along with a university and technical college.
It’s a perfect combination for professionals, families, retirees, and all points in-between.
