Five Forks is primarily a residential suburb of Greenville. All addresses are based on the closest post office in Simpsonville, but Five Forks is well outside the city limits of Simpsonville. The two elementary schools in Five Forks, Bells Crossing and Monarch, consistently rank as the best elementary schools in the state.
