The City of Clinton is truly the gateway to the Upstate. Located just 45 minutes south of Greenville and 60 minutes north of Columbia, Clinton's attractive location and progressive planning efforts are contributing to its growth and development, especially in manufacturing. Anderson Hardwood Floors, Sterlite Corp., and AstenJohnson are all located in Clinton. It is also home to Presbyterian College and its future Pharmacy School. In addition, infrastructure expansion and improvements, such as the widening of SC Highway 72, are opening up new areas for development.
