About Columbia, South Carolina
Columbia, the capital of South Carolina, ranks second in the state by population, at an estimated 147,035 in 2025. Richland County's seat, it also reaches into Lexington and Kershaw counties. The city lies near the center of the state, at the fall line, where the Broad and Saluda rivers meet to form the Congaree River. The name Columbia was a poetic stand-in for the United States, and the short form "Cola" gave rise to the nickname "Soda City". The University of South Carolina is here, as is Fort Jackson, the Army's biggest basic combat training installation.
The surveyor John Guignard planned Columbia as a grid two miles on a side, with 400 blocks and unusually wide streets, five years ahead of L'Enfant's Washington plan. Assembly and Senate streets were each 46 m (150 ft) wide, and the other streets were 30 m (100 ft). Each block was split into half-acre lots for sale to residents, and commissioners kept prominent sites for public buildings such as the State House, on which work began in 1786. The Santee Canal, finished in 1800, linked the city to Charleston by inland water. A fire in 1865 destroyed much of the city, and rebuilding took place during Reconstruction.
