Near Me in Iva, SC
Anderson County, SC

Iva was incorporated in 1902 in the southwestern corner of Anderson County, a community that grew out of the cotton economy and the textile expansion that swept the SC Piedmont in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The name is believed by local historians to derive either from the initials of the Iva Manufacturing Company, one of the small textile operations that anchored the town's early economy, or from a local family name that predated the mill era. The surrounding land had been farmed by Scots-Irish and English families since the late eighteenth century, after the Cherokee cession opened the Piedmont to settlement, and those agricultural roots ran deep. Cotton was king in southern Anderson County, and the families who grew it, ginned it, and sold it through the late nineteenth century accumulated real wealth in the form of pre-1933 gold coins, Morgan and Peace Dollars, and silver certificates that were kept at home rather than trusted to distant banks. The textile mill brought a new class of wage-earning families to Iva, and those workers too accumulated pre-1964 silver coinage paycheck by paycheck across the mid-twentieth century. Both streams of accumulation, the old agricultural wealth and the mill-era savings, are still surfacing in Iva-area estate sales and family settlements today.

Through the mid-twentieth century Iva remained a stable small-town community anchored by the mill, local agriculture, and the churches and schools that served both. The textile industry's long decline through the latter decades of the century touched Iva as it touched every mill town in the SC Piedmont, but the community's deep family roots and its proximity to Anderson kept it intact as a functioning small town with a strong local identity.

Today Iva is a quiet, close-knit community in southern Anderson County near the Abbeville County line, with a population that reflects generations of families who chose to stay. New residents drawn by affordable land and the proximity to Lake Hartwell and Anderson have added a newer layer to the community, and estate sales in the area regularly bring out collections that span the full arc of Iva's history from the cotton era through the present day.
