About Irmo

Eleven miles outside of Columbia, South Carolina, Irmo is conveniently located along the I-26. Originally created to support the Columbia, Newberry and Laurens Railroad, the town’s name was actually formed from the combination of its founders named. Interestingly, Irmo doesn’t have a town center but rather clusters of suburban neighborhoods. Therefore, residents of an apartment or home rental in Irmo usually have to travel elsewhere to run errands, shop, and work. The commute into Columbia takes about 15 minutes although the train runs to the city center in about 10. Irmo was also recognized by Money Magazine in 2007 as the 12th "Most Affordable Place to Live in the Country". Residents of an Irmo house or apartment for rent anticipate the annual Okra Strut Festival which is a combination of arts, music, food, and healthy neighborhood competition, although over 45,000 visitors flock to Irmo to take part in the festivities. Saluda Shoals Park and Friarsgate Park are the main recreational venues in Irmo, although residents can also use the Dutch Fork Tennis Center. Midlands Technical College at Harbison is also located in Irmo besides the Lexington-Richland School that operates 6 elementary schools, a middle school, and a high school.
