East of town taking SC 12 (Taylor Street. which turns into Forest Drive) is the City of Forest Acres, one of the first suburban communities established outside of Columbia's city limits. One of the largest municipalities in Richland County, it is bordered on the south by the City of Columbia, to the east by Ft. Jackson, and on the north by the Town of Arcadia Lakes. Covering five square miles, it has a population of 10,580. Forest Acres is a popular residential choice for people who work downtown. Its varied shops and convenience to the city's center are complemented by its peaceful neighborhood setting. This area is known for its outstanding floral beauty each spring and Columbians enjoy leisurely drives through its shady streets to admire the display. Heathwood and Forest Hills are nearby neighborhoods that also share fame for fantastic spring flowers and beautiful homes. I-77 through Southeast Columbia completes a circle of expressway around Columbia. Commercial development is found on Garners Ferry Road, Forest Drive and Devine Street. Fort Jackson, located here, is the largest and most active Initial Entry Training Center in the United States Army, providing training to about 50% of the men and women who enter the service each year. Fort Jackson has added several new schools and training institutions including the Soldier Support institute, the Chaplains Center and School, and Department of Defense Polygraph Institute. The Fort and the city of Columbia enjoy a friendly relationship.
