Located by Winyah Bay, half way between Charleston and Myrtle Beach in eastern South Carolina, Georgetown is the third oldest city in the U.S. state of South Carolina. With a population of 8,403 (2024) Georgetown is known for its rich history as well as award-winning restaurants, unique shops, and the scenic Harborwalk.

The city approached us looking for a way to communicate with citizens more effectively and provide better mobile capabilities. The Info Grove team worked with key stakeholders at the City and within a few months, the town launched the Georgetown S.C. app. Powered by the Info Grove platform, the app helps citizens stay informed and engaged with city services. Key features of the app include:

  • Notifications for important announcements
  • Garbage & Recycling Information and Schedule
  • Calendar of Events
  • Submit Citizen Requests
  • Pay Utility Bills
  • Stay up to date on Council meetings and public notices.
  • And much more

Compared to the city’s website, the mobile app enables more direct engagement by allowing the city to send notifications directly to citizens. Users can also receive automatic alerts when content changes, creating a more interactive and timely experience.

The Info Grove platform makes it easy for city staff to manage and update content. Much of the app’s information is configured to update automatically, simplifying the process and reducing the workload for staff.
