About septic in Saxon
About Saxon
Saxon is a Census-designated village of 3,896 people in Spartanburg County, only about 2.7 road miles and 8 minutes west of downtown Spartanburg, a short local drive. Arcadia is 1.3 miles west, Hilltop 1.5 miles north and Southern Shops 2 miles northwest. SC DES's Greenville/Spartanburg office handles septic permits. Saxon is on our route for pumping, inspections and repairs.
Soil and ground
Mapped soils in the area are Cecil at all five Saxon sample points, and NRCS rates four somewhat limited and one very limited for slow water movement and slope. Three points fall in urban-land complexes. About 158 feet of relief makes the ground hilly, with mapped slopes of 8 to 20 percent. Fairforest Creek runs about 0.9 mile away. This is generalized survey data, not a property evaluation; individual lots differ and need a site evaluation.
Soil data: USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey. Housing data: US Census Bureau ACS.Homes here
The 2020 Census counted 1,554 housing units in Saxon. By 2020-2024 ACS estimates the median home was built around 1975, and only about 38 percent are owner-occupied, so rentals are a large share. Around a third are mobile homes, though that margin is wide. Whoever holds the system, pumping and inspection dates are worth writing down.
Saxon questions
Who handles septic upkeep for a rental in Saxon?
Only about 38 percent of Saxon homes are owner-occupied by ACS estimates, so many are rentals. The property owner holds the septic system, so pumping and inspection dates belong with the owner or manager. We work with rental owners and property managers.
Does living near Fairforest Creek affect a septic system?
Fairforest Creek runs about 0.9 mile from Saxon's centre, with Butterfly Branch Creek 1.2 miles out. Creek distance is a map fact, not a verdict on a yard. If your yard stays wet over the drain field after rain, we can inspect it.
