About Horry County, SC
Horry County, named for Revolutionary War hero Peter Horry, is South Carolina’s largest county by area and stretches along the Atlantic coast. Originally known as “The Independent Republic of Horry” due to its geographic isolation, the county developed a unique cultural identity. In the late 19th century, the arrival of the railroad facilitated the growth of small farming communities and towns like Conway. By the 20th century, the county transformed into a tourist destination with the establishment of Myrtle Beach and other coastal attractions along the Grand Strand, making tourism and hospitality major drivers of the local economy today.
