South Hill is a thriving, rapidly-growing community located in south-central Virginia near the North Carolina state line halfway between the state capitals of Richmond, Virginia and Raleigh, North Carolina.

Since its beginning as a railroad town in 1889, South Hill has continued to be known for its ideal location. Today, the town is easily accessible by a highway network consisting of Interstate 85, U.S. Route 58, U.S. Route 1 and Highway 47. South Hill is also only six miles away from the Mecklenburg-Brunswick Regional Airport.

Incorporated in 1901, South Hill has always been known for its tobacco industry and the town is presently the third largest market in Virginia. But over the past few years a significant growth in manufacturing and trade has diversified the town's economy. The town's growth is enhanced by it's proximity to two nearby lakes, Kerr Lake and Lake Gaston. With over 1,100 combined miles of shoreline, tourist trade and a booming real estate market serve to fuel our town's growth.
