About Student Housing in Greenville
Greenville, South Carolina is a fast-growing Upstate city known for its walkable downtown, and it's home to Furman University, a small liberal arts school of around 2,500 students just northwest of the center. The real draw is Falls Park on the Reedy, where a downtown waterfall and the Liberty Bridge anchor a green corridor that flows into the Swamp Rabbit Trail, a paved rail-trail running toward Travelers Rest. Main Street buzzes with restaurants, markets, and festivals, and minor-league baseball at Fluor Field adds to the civic energy. Student life leans on Furman's lakeside campus and the broader Greenville scene, with the West End, North Main, and nearby foothills offering everything from nightlife to quick mountain escapes.
