Ketchuptown, SC

Sitting about ten miles north of Aynor in rural Horry County, Ketchuptown is a quiet farming crossroads with just a few dozen residents. The unusual name dates back to the 1920s, when local farmers would gather at a general store on Saturday afternoons to "catch up" on community news and chat. Today, it remains a peaceful, open country settlement surrounded by farmland and timber, offering slow-paced rural living about an hour inland from Myrtle Beach.
