I would like to welcome you to the Town of Batesburg-Leesville, located in western Lexington County and the vibrant Midlands of South Carolina. Batesburg-Leesville, formally two independent municipalities, consolidated services in 1992. B-L is strategically located in the heart of SC, only 2 hours from the mountains and the ocean. Surrounded by peach trees, and rolling fields, B-L, a family friendly community, is minutes from the state capital, museums, 5-star dining, an extraordinary zoo, botanical gardens, and family recreation.

While engaged in providing opportunities for economic growth and development, we diligently preserve our tranquil atmosphere. We strongly encourage community involvement, citizen’s participation in civic events, and the support of local businesses. We have created a safe community for residents and visitors, fostering a relaxed environment that is a great place for families, young and old. Whether you are looking for a permanent escape from the noise and chaos of city life, an outing for shopping, antiquing, or a place to appreciate genuine Southern cuisine, we welcome and invite you to come be a part of our family. Batesburg-Leesville, maintaining small town ambiance and a family state of mind.
