Humid Summers in Dentsville 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) We have excellent schools and are within close proximity to many different towns and downtown. I moved to Dentsville for the convenience and school district and I have been pleased so far. There are a lot of activities at the local parks in the summer including concerts, camping ...Read More in the park and more. The parks are very clean and safe.

I don't enjoy the summer weather here because it is very humid and the allergies are very difficult in the spring and summer. I do like that it has a "college" town feel and the cost of living is very low. Dentsville is growing steadily, and commuting in and out of town is very easy at the moment.

There are several delicious restaurants in the area including Kiki's Chicken and Waffles. The portion sizes are very big and the atmosphere is very relaxed. I usually travel to Columbia for more upbeat activities including the Art Bar, the Children's Museum, the State Park and the Art Museum. Read Less
