The city of Goose Creek is the most populated city in Berkley County. And with a tight-knit community, beautiful outdoor attractions and a great location with close proximity to Charleston, the city's population continues to grow and thrive. Goose Creek was officially founded in 1961, but its early history dates back to the beginning of the Carolina colony. The city was a waterway at the time, and the name 'Goose Creek' likely originated due to the curved shape of its creeks and waters, similar to that of a goose's neck.
