Spoken like a true saleman, 10 pros & 0 cons. I've spoken to real people who moved here and their huge cons are traffic, crowds everywhere doing everything, biker week, golfers, beach goers, etc all associated with tourism which is only a 4-5 month imposition. Stay west of the intercoastal waterway and you're all set.
Btw, I love MB & have been coming here since 1976!
Myrtle is paradise compared to Reading, Pa!!!!
Love this. Retired from northern Vermont... Canadian border northern Vermont. Although beautiful , it’s very cold and expensive! So glad to be here at The Grand Strand. Great weather, great taxes, kind people and so much to do. It’s a two day trip hone, but that’s not too, too bad. Definitely worth it.
THANKS FOR TELLING THE FACTS JEREMEY!
This was fun! Thanks
I love lemonade! 😀🌴🌅🏖️ Thank you for the information 😀
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌Nice VLOG! Thank you for sharing!Hi from Travelly 👍
I enjoy watching your videos, thank you for the info Jeremy. We’re looking to make the move down from NJ soon.
Thanks! Let me know how I can help! Feel free to shoot me an email at info@jeremyblanton.com & let me know how I can help!
We travel to Myrtle a lot because of family but we decided against retiring there because of the over developing and traffic. Nice to visit but I couldn't live there!
Hey Jeremy, I enjoyed the video, I am 49 years old and I am also from Reading, PA. Go Red Knights. Anyhow, I been living in Maine for 22 years now. Granted we own near 50 acres, our property taxes are about $5000 a year. I live within a three mile radius of everything I need, so it works. Myrtle Beach does sound nice. Maybe in 10 years I can convince the wife to consider downsizing to there. Sand as opposed to snow sounds like a nice trade off to me.
1 YEAR AND 3 MONTHS AND i'M RETIRING TO MYRTLE BEACH..FROM WV
There are property taxes ALSO on vehicles, boats, trailers, motor homes, etc.
Jeremy, thanks for the fun video! I have fond memories of camping on the beach with the family in the 60s. Now that I am in my 60s maybe it would be fun to spend my retirement back at the beach? We use to collect fossilized shark teeth on the beach but I understand these have been gone for decades.
No! You can still find shark teeth down the beach! It's one of my son's favorite things to do!
That is so cool! It is nice to hear that some things remain the same. I have wonderful childhood memories of South Carolina. Playing baseball in little league, and meeting Mickey Mantel and Bobby Richardson. Fishing in the Santee Cooper with Spanish Moss and water moccasins.
Bigger is not always better! 😎
Moving there for retirement as soon as my home here in AL sells! Woohoo! 🎃🍂🍁
Let me know how I can help!
Where are the flood areas? Do they have any flood problems during hurricanes and other lesser storms?
Do you have to buy flood insurance? How much.?
Do they have the Homestead Exemption in Horry County?
I like the area and thinking of retiring there. Nice area. Vacation there numerous times over the last 40 years. Love the golf courses.
full time Homestead Exemption in Horry County , yes. Horry county flood map look at
Can’t wait to retire to myrtle beach 🏖
Let me know when you are ready! I'd love to help make that dream a reality!
@@jeremyblanton will jeremy love your videos
Amazing information. maybe you could include
a videos about working in the beach 🏖
Thanks for the great info. But, please turn the background music off. It's super distracting and annoying.
Noted!
Great video Jeremy! I dream of retiring to Myrtle Beach every day haha! The ONLY con I see is the traffic, but that is an easy trade off for all the Pro's of Myrtle Beach!
Question: I keep hearing about how bad the crime is getting in Myrtle. Is this true/accurate, or are these stories overblown?
Comments on the food: My family and I make it a point to have a meal at River City Burger every time we visit! We love that place!!
Any way, thanks again for the great video! We LOVE Myrtle Beach and can't wait to visit again in about 5 weeks!!
crime is brought by the tourist market. They come to play, misbehave many of them, and do things they hope to not get caught for. They get caught, tourist area's, always bring heightened crimes around the tourist. Those can attract opportunistic people to make a buck, play, or bring their unsavory behaviors. The local residents the crime is low.
What is advantages of new construction
Hey! Thanks for asking! I actually did a whole live video the other week on new construction communities as well as have a pros/cons video coming soon! Check out the live video from2 weeks ago.
What is crime like in myrtle beach
But you can’t beat the taxes. They are so cheap
I live in Illinois taxes very high here. I gotta move out of here.
Just do us all a favor and don't move here and continue to vote for politicians that want to spend spend spend. It never fails. Folks move from up north and then want us to change to the way you did it back home where the taxes are crazy high.
@@chip2407 I agree and what blows my mind, is "these so-called intelligent" yanks move to flee the high taxes, the regulations, and the politicians from UP NORTH and damn if they don't come down here and start votiing in the same sick LIBERAL TYPES that they fled from up North! That's what I would say is STUPID! And they try to label us Southern Folks as being the Idiots! Don't destroy the South like it is in the NORTH!
If you live in suburbia up there you’ll find it lacking in easy to find healthy food, good pay and open minds lol. I still may retire there though.
@@claudedalton8970 THANK YOU. I’m starting to notice all these northerners coming down and complaining about how republican it is. Why else is it so affordable and relaxed? Don’t California our south! Stay up there if you love it so much to keep voting that way.
I like your information, but I can't stand with the music in the background.
Just know that airline tickets from MYR are not cheap
What about traffic? Crowded restaurants? Humidity? Bugs/snakes/gators?
Traffic in the tourist areas can be a little heavy at times. The same is true of the restaurants in that area. But if you go to the local spots, it's really not that bad. As for the bugs, yes, we have those and also humidity, but that is true of everywhere in the south.
@@jeremyblanton Thank you. Myrtle Beach is on our list of places to check out this year, once we have our vaccines.
@@deborahrabine9956 Sounds great! Let me know when you are in town!
@@jeremyblanton We are planning a vacation but the choices of places to stay is overwhelming. Do you have a video on Places to Stay? I did a search but could not find one.
@@deborahrabine9956 There definitely are a lot of choices in the area. The big thing to first decide is whether you want to be in Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, or the southern end of the area. Once you figure that out, then you can pick places that fit your budget. In the northern end of the beach, people like North Beach Plantation, Ocean Creek, or Kingston Plantation. As you head south some, another great option is Dunes Village Resort.
Fall here in Conway is nothing compared to New England. That’s what I miss the most.
One con would be getting sunburned
Keep that sunscreen handy for sure!
Welcome to South Carolina. But leave your liberal politics up there.
SPF!
Here four years but missing my like minded friends in the NE.
Sure sounds like 10 pros and 0 cons 🤔
He is a real estate agent trying to lure people into his market. There are tons of cons to living in Horry county, but he will never share those on his "marketing" channel.
We don't need no more Yankees down here
I didn't know that the guy from 90 Day Fiance knows everything about Myrtle beach... Lol
LOL
Welcome to South Carolina. But leave your liberal politics up there.
Keep South Carolina red for the love of God....seriously. Keep the south red. Don’t let it slip to the northern libs who vote the same thing they fled. It’s a parasite.
