McCormick County, Administrative county in western South Carolina, United States.
McCormick County extends along the Savannah River and includes sections of Sumter National Forest with pine-covered hills and river bottomlands.
The territory was established as McCormick County in 1914, named after Cyrus Hall McCormick who donated substantial land for the county seat.
The county maintains Southern traditions through local festivals, community gatherings, and regional cuisine that reflect its agricultural heritage.
