The City of Bamberg welcomes you to our new website and extends an open invitation to visit our city.  If your family is looking for a safer, more wholesome way of life, Bamberg's high-achieving schools, safe streets, our city parks and recreation programs, and neighborly atmosphere could be just what you're searching for.  If your company or industry is looking to expand, the City of Bamberg has designated industrial sites complete with the infrastructure, amenities, available workforce, and financial incentives to insure an efficient and cost-effective start-up and on-going operation.  If you are a retiree looking for a quiet friendly place, then Bamberg is your kind of town.  With Paw Paw golf course, garden and music clubs, and many outdoor recreational opportunities, you can retire as much or as little as you like.

From the Ness Sports Complex to Foster Park, no South Carolina city or town of any size can boast of better municipal recreational facilities, equipment, volunteers, and programs for their young people than the absolutely first-rate Bamberg City Recreation Department offers.

Bamberg has some of the best public schools in all of South Carolina.  Bamberg-Ehrhardt School District One leads the entire six-county area in SAT and other standardized test scores and ranks in the top ten percentile among the state's 86 public school districts.  With computers in all grade levels, a truly challenging curriculum, great teachers, and a low student/teacher ratio, our Bamberg schools are yet another example of our citizens' willingness to invest in our most treasured asset... our children.

Healthcare and Emergency Services Readily Available!
From the newborn to the senior citizen, Bamberg has the facilities and caring professionals to provide the needed healthcare.  Bamberg is home of the 59-bed Bamberg County Hospital and the modern 88-bed Bamberg County Nursing Center.  Bamberg is also served by six physicians, a surgeon, and two dentists.  For more information, please call the adminstrative offices of Bamberg County Memorial Hospital at (803) 245-4321 or visit the Bamberg County Hospital and Nursing Center website.

The City is proud of its 9-member police department and our dedicated fire department which includes 3 full-time firefighters and another 21 certified volunteers.  Living safe and healthy is a Bamberg way of life.
