Zip code 29201 centers on downtown Columbia, where the Saluda and Broad rivers meet to form the Congaree, bringing riverwalk views, greenways, and steamy summers with mild winters. Anchored by the South Carolina State House and the University of South Carolina, it blends history with urban energy—think the Main Street District, the Vista arts and dining corridor, the Columbia Museum of Art, the Koger Center, and the Saturday Soda City Market. Daily needs are easy with Publix on Gervais, coffee at Drip on Main or Indah, and gyms sprinkled around the Vista; popular parks include Finlay Park and the Three Rivers Greenway for biking, running, and kayaking nearby. Recent Zillow Market Trends show the area’s median rent hovering in the mid-$1,500s, with most listings roughly $1,200–$2,100+ in recent months. Expect a mix of students, professionals, and state workers, a lively nightlife, walkable streets, dog-friendly patios, and a generally pet-friendly, downtown-close lifestyle with quick access to I-126 and I-77.
