If you build it, will they come?



Anderson Airport is located 3 miles East of Anderson. Growth around the airport is almost exclusively residential. Owned by the City of Anderson, this 48-year-old airport was built in 1959, and lived through GM's golden age. If it were ever going to develop industry for the City, it would surely have done so by now.

Sadly, it seems to some that the City has willfully neglected this airport.

According to the latest at BOAC, there were 2,513 less flights in 2007 year-to-date than during the same time period in 2006. Airports, therefore, do not equate with jobs on the scale politicians promise. Photo: 2007
