Piedmont is a somewhat small town located in the state of South Carolina. With a population of 5,571 people and six associated neighborhoods, Piedmont is the 73rd largest community in South Carolina.

One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 8.41% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.

Residents will find that the town is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Piedmont is worth considering.

Being a small town, Piedmont does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.

The education level of Piedmont citizens, measured as those with bachelor's degrees or advanced degrees, is similar to the national average for all American cities and towns. 18.63% of adults 25 and older in Piedmont have a college degree.

The per capita income in Piedmont in 2022 was $30,664, which is middle income relative to South Carolina, and lower middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $122,656 for a family of four. However, Piedmont contains both very wealthy and poor people as well.
