Thank you for sharing your perspective! It's always interesting to hear different viewpoints about living in Lexington, SC.

Thank you for sharing your perspective, Ras. You're absolutely right that Florida continues to attract many new residents each year, contributing to its status as one of the fastest-growing states. However, it's also important to acknowledge that while Florida experiences significant inward migration, it also sees substantial outward migration. As discussed in the video, thousands of individuals and families are indeed choosing to leave Florida for various reasons. Both inward and outward migration play a role in shaping the demographic landscape of the state. Your input adds valuable context to the ongoing discussion about migration trends in Florida. Thank you for contributing to the conversation!

Absolutely, the presence of coastline does indeed contribute to higher housing costs in Florida. Coastal properties often command premium prices due to factors such as proximity to beaches, water views, and recreational opportunities. Additionally, Florida's popularity as a tourist destination and desirable place to live also influences housing demand and prices. These factors, combined with others such as population growth and local market conditions, contribute to the overall higher housing costs in Florida compared to South Carolina. However, South Carolina does offer more affordable housing options compared to Florida, and this affordability can be attributed to various factors such as lower property taxes, less demand for coastal properties, and different market dynamics. These factors contribute to a more favorable housing affordability index in South Carolina, making it an attractive option for those seeking a more affordable cost of living. Thank you for highlighting this important aspect of the comparison and thank you for watching the video.

Thank you for watching the video and for letting me know about the closure of the Blended Bakery. I'm aware that the restaurant has since closed its doors, although it was operational when the video was recorded. Your feedback is very valuable to me, and I appreciate you taking the time to share your observations. Enjoy the remaining of your weekend.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's understandable that opinions on relocation can vary widely, and I appreciate hearing different viewpoints.

Thank you for reaching out! Whether you need a job lined up in South Carolina before being approved for a loan can depend on various factors, including the type of loan you're applying for and the lender's specific requirements. While having stable employment can positively impact your loan approval process, it's not always a strict requirement. I recommend consulting with a knowledgeable mortgage lender who can assess your individual situation and provide personalized guidance tailored to your needs. They can offer insight into the specific loan options available to you and discuss any requirements or considerations related to employment. I'll be happy to put in contact with an excellent loan officer that can help you navigate your particular situation. Please text me at 803-220-1678.

Hey Michael! Thank you for sharing your perspective! It's true that different individuals have varying preferences and priorities when it comes to choosing a place to live. While some may find South Carolina's tax structure or job market to be less favorable for their needs, others may appreciate the state's rich culture, natural beauty, and overall quality of life. Ultimately, the decision to live in a particular area depends on personal circumstances, preferences, and lifestyle goals. I always encourage thorough research and consideration to ensure a well-informed decision that aligns with individual needs and preferences. Thanks for contributing to the discussion!

Thank you for sharing your perspective! It's wonderful to hear that you have a strong affinity for the country of Georgia. While this video focused on comparing the differences between the states of Georgia and South Carolina in the United States, it's always fascinating to learn about different places around the world. Every region has its own unique charm and appeal. Thank you for watching!

By the way, Rachel, are you considering a move to either Greenville or Columbia, or perhaps just curious about the differences between the two cities?

Thank you, Rachel, for your kind words and support! I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the video and found it helpful. Your feedback means a lot to me, and I'm grateful for your appreciation. If there are any other topics you'd like to see covered in future videos, please feel free to let me know. Thanks again for watching!

Thanks for sharing your perspective Scott! It's true that Greenville has its own unique charm with its beautiful scenery and vibrant downtown. However, Columbia offers its own array of attractions and opportunities that make it a wonderful place to live and visit. From its rich history and cultural diversity to its thriving arts scene and outdoor recreation options, Columbia has much to offer residents and visitors alike. Each city has its own distinct character, and it ultimately comes down to personal preference. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts!

Thank you very much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the video. If you ever have any questions or suggestions for future comparisons, please don't hesitate to reach out. Your support truly means a lot to me. Are you considering moving to one of these 2 states? Thanks again for taking the time to watch!

Thank you for sharing your insights! I appreciate your perspective on considering metropolitan areas when comparing cities. However, in this particular video, my intention was to focus on a comparison between Greenville and Columbia based on more straightforward parameters rather than delving into the intricacies of metropolitan statistical areas. Comparing cities can be multifaceted, and different criteria can yield varying results. In this case, I aimed to highlight specific aspects of Greenville and Columbia that viewers might find interesting or informative. Both cities have their own unique charm, amenities, and cultural offerings, and my goal was simply to shed light on some of those differences without getting into the complexities of broader metropolitan areas. Thank you for watching and engaging with the content!

The urbanized area is the real barometer. Metropolitan statistical area populations include people in the rural areas of each county within the MSA. The urbanized area population includes only the population contained within contiguously developed areas within the MSA surrounding the MSA’s principal city. Charleston’s urbanized area is the largest in the state. Columbia’s is next, then Greenville’s. Spartanburg has its own urbanized area. Charleston’s urbanized area has about 140,000 more people than Greenville’s.

@@mattwoolsey2758 Thank you for your detailed explanation and insight into the population dynamics of South Carolina's major cities. Your clarification on the differences between metropolitan statistical areas and urbanized areas provides valuable context for understanding the urban development patterns within each city. It's interesting to note that Charleston boasts the largest urbanized area in the state, followed by Columbia and then Greenville. This information highlights the varying degrees of urbanization and population density across these cities, each with its own unique characteristics and appeal. Considering this perspective, it's evident that Columbia, as the state capital, maintains a significant urbanized area, which contributes to its status as a prominent economic and cultural hub in South Carolina. Greenville, with its rapidly growing urban core and surrounding suburban areas, offers a distinct blend of urban amenities and natural beauty, while Charleston's historic charm and coastal location make it a standout destination in the region. Understanding the nuances of urban development and population distribution enriches discussions about the strengths and opportunities of each city. I appreciate your contribution to this conversation and the valuable insights you've shared.

​​​​​​@@mattwoolsey2758Not sure I agree, but for the record, the U.S. Census gives Mauldin its own urbanized area which exceeds 160k. Combining that with Greenville's urbanized area population, the 3 major cities in South Carolina are actually very close in real size. However, in the long run, Greenville will pass Charleston and Columbia. It is the dead center of what is known as Charlanta. You know, the I85 corridor. And, the Upstate population far exceeds the Midlands and Low Country. Within the next 10 years, there will be over 1 million people living in Spartanburg and Greenville county alone. Already their populations far exceed Berkeley and Charleston counties, and for that matter, Lexington and Richland counties. And, if you've ever been to Mauldin, it is indistinguishable from Greenville. One will not know if they left Greenville when entering Mauldin. I'm sure it's a technicality that gives Mauldin its own urbanized area. However, it without a doubt, is a failing in the rules. Simply put, Greenville has swallowed Mauldin and Simpsonville for that matter.

Charleston-North Charleston is growing at a faster rate than Greenville-Anderson-Mauldin. And Charleston’s urbanized area is about 140,000 larger than Greenville and Mauldin’s urbanized areas combined, actually, meaning the essence of Charleston is more contiguously populated than the essence of Greenville to the tune of about 140,000 people. Spartanburg is its own city, MSA, and urbanized area with its own essence. But if Greenville needs Spartanburg’s help, okay, whatever. Bigger isn’t better anyway. Uniqueness goes further. It is easier to move to Greenville right now than it is Charleston. I’ll give you that. Stay tuned.

I do! I'll set you up with property alerts now that I have your email address. Blessings!

Thank you!

Love ❤ your video energy and entrepreneurial insights, would love to do a collab with you in the near future. Thank you. 🙏 Dan Belsky

Thank you so much for watching my video! I'm thrilled to hear that you appreciate the RV parks near Columbia, SC, and the opportunity they provide to explore the vibrant city while surrounded by the tranquility of nature. It's truly a unique experience that I'm excited to share with others. If you have any specific parks or areas you'd recommend, feel free to share - I'm always looking for new places to explore and share with the community.

Thank you for your comment! It's great that you're interested in finding a suitable place to live in Columbia, SC. However, it's important to note that realtors cannot provide information on the 'safest' places to live due to fair housing laws, which prohibit practices like steering. Instead, I recommend conducting independent research on factors such as crime rates, school ratings, and amenities in different areas to make an informed decision based on your preferences and needs. One way to look into crime rates is by contacting the local sheriff's office, who can provide information about safety in specific neighborhoods. If you have any questions about the home-buying process or general information about Columbia, feel free to ask! Remember to consider multiple factors to ensure that you find a home that aligns with your lifestyle and needs.
