West Carolina Rural Telephone Cooperative, Inc. (West Carolina) was founded in 1952 to deliver reliable telephone service to rural communities in Abbeville and McCormick counties and the Starr-Iva area of Anderson County. From those roots, West Carolina has continually expanded and modernized, bringing advanced communications services once reserved for metropolitan areas to the communities it serves.

Today, our network spans more than 7,500 miles of fiber, reaching approximately 100,000 addresses with fast, reliable, future-ready connectivity. West Carolina remains deeply committed to its original service areas while also connecting homes and businesses across Greenwood County, Newberry County, Columbia County (GA), and additional parts of upstate South Carolina through its Upcountry Fiber brand. By investing in robust infrastructure and embracing new technologies, West Carolina ensures its members and customers have access to the latest in broadband, voice, and next-generation connectivity.
