About Piedmont

Soil and ground
The Saluda River runs about 0.1 mile from the centre of Piedmont, and FEMA maps show a flood zone within about 0.3 mile. Mapped soils in the area are mostly Madison, Cecil and Gwinnett, with three of five points very limited by NRCS for slow water movement and slope. Some units map a water table at 33 inches. Generalized survey data only, not a property evaluation. Individual lots differ and need a site evaluation.
Soil data: USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey. Housing data: US Census Bureau ACS.Homes here
2,222 housing units were counted in Piedmont in 2020. The 2020-2024 ACS puts the median year built at about 1985 and about 41 percent date from before 1980. About 70 percent are owner-occupied, and about a quarter are mobile homes, though that margin is wide. Mobile homes and site-built houses can have different systems, so we look at each.
