As of 2019, 31.5 percent of all households in Florence County had one or more persons under the age of 18, and
23.3 percent of all residents were under age 18. This compares to the average for the State of South Carolina of
21.6 percent of residents under age 18. Most households in the County are families, at 67.4 percent with the
majority as married couples with and without children in the home at 43.6 percent. Only 3.7 percent of family
households are males with no spouse, whereas 20.2 percent of these are females with no spouse. Accordingly,
as the share of families and children in County shifts over time, the County will need to continue addressing the
differing needs of these demographic groups.
