Prosperity, South Carolina
Prosperity, SC is a small town located in southern Newberry County, about 7 miles from the large recreational Lake Murray, with its 500-mile shoreline.
Long before settlement, the area was known as Frog Level. The town was actually chartered by this name in 1851 with the advent of the Southern Railroad. In 1873, at the insistence of a majority of its three hundred citizens, the Legislature changed the name to Prosperity. (Can you blame them?) The name of Prosperity is presumed to be borrowed from the name of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian meeting place, which appeared on an 1825 Mills' Atlas map and was designated as Prosperity Meeting House.
Today the Town of Prosperity combines old fashioned charm with all the necessary conveniences. The growing community has a thriving business district.
