Planning & Zoning » Town of Summerville

Welcome to Summerville, the Flower Town in the Pines, where charm and Southern hospitality blend gracefully with the modern and progressive. Summerville is rich in history and focused on economic development that preserves the past while building for the future.

Steeped in the natural beauty of lush pines and blooming azaleas, Summerville — a Tree City USA community — may be a small town, but when you’re a small town with big charm, anything is possible.

Summerville is recognized as a nurturing community where children can grow and develop. Located just minutes from Charleston and the beaches, our world-class sports venues and superior schools make Summerville a truly special place to work, live and play.
