Darlington

Town and administrative headquarters of Darlington County, northeast South Carolina; population (1990) 7,311. It is situated 16 km/10 mi north-northwest of Florence. In a rich farming region, Darlington is a major trade and warehouse centre for locally produced tobacco and cotton, and produces cotton cloth, cottonseed oil, and wood veneer.

Darlington was first settled in 1798. A brief local revolt (1894) against stringent antiliquor laws was dubbed the ‘Darlington War’.

The Darlington Raceway, a stock car track to the west of the city, holds two 800-km/500-mi races annually, and a major dragway is also nearby.
