Soil and ground
Elevation is about 923 feet with 135 feet of relief within a mile, hilly. Mapped soils in the area are Cecil at 4 sampled points and Toccoa at 1, a frequently flooded unit. NRCS rates 4 somewhat limited and 1 very limited for septic absorption fields, naming slow water movement, slope, seepage and a saturated zone. None of this is a property evaluation, only generalized survey data. Individual lots differ, so each one needs a site evaluation.
Soil data: USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey. Housing data: US Census Bureau ACS.Homes here

Boiling Springs questions
Does the hilly ground in Boiling Springs affect a drain field?
The 5 sampled points span about 135 feet of relief, and NRCS lists slope as a limit at one of them. Slope can matter for where a drain field fits. That is area data, not a call on your lot. A site evaluation covers your own grade.
Does a newer home in Boiling Springs need less septic upkeep?
ACS estimates put the median home here at about 2006. A newer tank still follows the SC DES guidance of inspecting every 1 to 2 years and pumping every 3 to 5, adjusted for tank size and household. Systems with pumps or mechanical parts need a look at least yearly.
