Living in Gilbert

Gilbert is a small town located in southern Lexington County, South Carolina, positioned west of the Town of Lexington and City of Columbia. The area is primarily accessed via Highway 378 and functions as a residential community with rural and semi-rural characteristics.

Gilbert developed historically as an agricultural area, and that influence continues to shape land use patterns today. Many properties feature larger lots, open land, and lower residential density compared to more suburban areas closer to Columbia. Residential development includes established neighborhoods, custom-built homes, and limited newer construction.

The Gilbert area also includes residential properties along the Lexington County side of Lake Murray. These properties range from lake-access homes to larger acreage parcels near the shoreline, contributing to the area’s appeal for buyers seeking water proximity outside more densely developed lake communities.

Gilbert is served by multiple school attendance zones depending on location, with Lexington School District One serving much of the area. Its location provides convenient access to Lexington, West Columbia, Columbia, and Lake Murray, while maintaining a quieter residential setting.
