About septic in Landrum
About Landrum
Landrum is a Spartanburg County city of 2,481 people on I-26, SC-56 and SC-14, 21.3 miles northwest of downtown Spartanburg in a straight line and 25.2 miles by road, about 35 minutes. Campobello is 4.7 miles to the southeast and Inman 10.4 miles. We serve Landrum, and SC DES handles septic permits through its Greenville/Spartanburg office.
Soil and ground
Mapped soils in the area are Cecil at three of five points and Toccoa at two. NRCS rates three points somewhat limited, two very limited, citing slow water movement and flooding. Slopes reach 12 percent and the mapped water table is as shallow as 36 inches. Elevation is about 1,045 feet with 138 feet of relief in a mile, so hilly. Spivey Creek runs 0.3 mile out. This is generalized survey data; individual lots differ and need a site evaluation.
Soil data: USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey. Housing data: US Census Bureau ACS.Homes here
Landrum had 1,222 housing units at the 2020 Census. The 2020-2024 ACS estimates put the median home at about 1972, with about 78 percent owner-occupied. Build-year share margins are wide so we do not quote an age split. Mid-century houses can have tanks that have never been pumped on record, so an inspection gives a baseline.
Landrum questions
Why does Toccoa soil show up in the Landrum survey?
Toccoa is a creek-bottom soil at two sampled points, and NRCS lists flooding, a saturated zone and seepage as features for those points. That is generalized survey data for the area. Individual lots differ, and a site evaluation shows whether a lot has anything like it.
Which creeks are near Landrum?
Spivey Creek is 0.3 mile from the town centre, Page Creek 0.4 mile and Wolfe Creek 0.5 mile. A map is not a verdict on any single yard, so we look at the site before saying anything about drainage.
