It is known for producing brassware and arts and crafts. From late spring to fall, Anseong holds its own Namsadang Neuri Festival.

Modern historyEdit
In 1963, Gosam town of Yongin was incorporated by Anseong, which was still a county at the time.<ref>Alteration of cities/counties/districts(1962-11-21)</ref>Template:Citation needed In 1983, Anseong 6 jurisdictions Compulsory incorporation without the consent of the residents to district of Pyeongtaek.<ref>Laws concerning change of districts of city, county, district, town, township and Establishment of new towns(1983-1-10)</ref>Template:Citation needed In 1998, Anseong was upgraded from county to city status.
It borders Pyeongtaek to the west, Yongin to the north, Icheon and Eumseong-gun to the east, and Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province and Jincheon-gun, North Chungcheong Province to the south. It is located in the southernmost part of Gyeonggi Province and is adjacent to Chungcheong Province along with Pyeongtaek, so it serves as a gateway to the rest of the country. For this reason, in the past, it was counted as one of three major commercial centers in Korea with Daegu and Jeonju. At that time, Anseong was a bustling city. In particular, the 5-day market held on the 2nd and 7th of every month was one of the three largest markets in Joseon.
- On April 1, 1998, Anseong City was established with jurisdiction over the entire Anseong County.
- On June 1, 2001, Gongdo-myeon was promoted to Gongdo-eup.

GeographyEdit
Land area by type and usage:
land use
- Overall, the northeast is high and the southwest is gentle, so the Cheongmicheon Mountain Range, which runs north to south, becomes a watershed that divides the region into east and west. To the east, Cheongmicheon flows, and to the west, Anseongcheon, Jollingcheon, and Hancheon join and flow into the West Sea. To the south, Seounsan Mountain (547m) rises, forming a boundary with Chungcheongnam-do and Chungcheongbuk-do, and large, low mountains surround the entire region like a folding screen. To the south and west, there are hills for middle-aged and elderly people, and wide plains due to the development of rivers.
ClimateEdit
