Overview
The FCC register lists 25 antenna structures in and around Ridgeland, SC. That is the 26th highest count of any place in South Carolina.
Area density is 0.52 per square mile — usually the more telling figure for infrastructure that follows terrain, roads and line of sight rather than population.
Heights are uneven: the median is 81 m (265 ft) but the tallest is 244 m (800 ft), roughly 3 times that — usually the signature of a broadcast mast among shorter mobile sites.
The mix here is 8 lattice towers, 5 guyed masts — the rest of the register is made up of rooftops, water tanks and structures the FCC records without a specific type.
The most recent registration on file here dates from 2024.

About this data
Source is the FCC Antenna Structure Registration file of 2026-08-23. What it records is structures, not the radios mounted on them: the register cannot tell you which carrier operates from a given site.
The FCC Antenna Structure Registration database covers structures that require registration — generally those over 200 feet or near airports. Many small cells, rooftop antennas and short towers are not registered and will not appear here.
"Owner" is the entity that registered the structure, usually a tower company such as American Tower or Crown Castle. It does not indicate which carriers operate equipment on the structure.
