City Government

From the Mayor's Desk

Welcome to the official website for the City of Camden, South Carolina. I am pleased to visit with you through the internet. Well into our 279th year, "Horses, History and Hospitality" make Camden a great place to work, to live and to play.

The City of Camden is a small, historic community. Our goal is to provide our citizens with the best service a city can provide; and, to offer our visitors the best vacation or business trip that we can provide. Our rich history is prominently displayed throughout, including great architecture, over 40 pre-Civil War homes, and some of the most beautiful parks and trees to be found in the Southeast. Our town also hosts an exciting variety of arts, along with fine cultural and entertaining opportunities. The combination of our unequaled beauty, warm hospitality, and unique public spaces provides the perfect backdrop for residents and visitors alike.

As you wonder through these pages about our hometown, you will see that our history and heritage have been thoughtfully preserved. With an eye aimed to the future, we have set goals which make the livability and quality of life in Camden one of our top priorities. We work diligently to ensure that Camden is a great place to work, live, and play.

If you are thinking of visiting or moving to Camden, I strongly encourage you to do so. And, while you are here, I would love to meet you. Each Thursday I host a "meet/greet" in my office at City Hall. You may call 803.432.2421 for an appointment. Thank you for visiting our website and please continue to learn more about the exciting opportunities Camden has to offer.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey R. Graham
Mayor
