I love hearing positive feedback from people who relocate to Myrtle, I’ve talked to a lot of locals and you always hear nothing but the best… Looking forward to retiring there myself in about 4 years.
I am in such anxiety about moving to Myrtle Beach, missing my friends and family, and having more cultural resources, but I can't afford to stay where I am! I appreciate your sharing very much.
Cons: traffic, heat, humidity, tourists, parking fees, horrible, HORRIBLE drivers, pollen season. Pros: Beach, great weather(yes i know hurricanes), palm/palmetto trees. Lots of things to do around the area outside of myrtle, many places with great food. Open carry state. No regrets moving here. Would we move back to pa? Heck no! Thanks for sharing Carmen and Brian
Funny the pollen here is better than where we moved from in NC. There were tons of huge trees everywhere there so it was really bad. Glad you have no regrets like us! :)
@CarmenandBrian but then again we live in Conway. I think the pollen is worse and the heat & humidity is just as bad. The pollen was not bad this year. I swear our next car will be yellow, lol
Texted earlier today thank you for the like.This video really helps in our move to S.C or N.C. We did live in Fla. & wife has family in Sanford N.C. so know what to expect. We’re @ age where winter is become a little dangerous for us. We will be following your advice, thanks.
I wish I found your channel three weeks ago. My wife and I vacationed there for two weeks and yes I love North Myrtle but explored all of South Myrtle as well! I am planing on moving there next year for 6 month and 6 months in NY
Yes and they are both in Charleston also. Since we're in Myrtle Beach both are quite a haul. We usually go by Charleston on our way back from Florida to pick stuff up.
Totally Awesome Video!.......Been going to The Grand Strand for over 40 years....Heading back again in August....I have always Dreamed about retiring and moving there....Great Stuff...Thank You
Thanks for the good information. You’ve given us a few things to think about. We are planning on moving to MB in a few years but we need specialized healthcare…
Most likely, depending on how specialized, you'll have to go to MUSC in Charleston. That's a one and a half to 2 hour drive one way depending on where you live in the Myrtle Beach area.
I am thinking about moving here with my younger two sons and hubby. Only thing holding me back is how much I will miss my parents and friends. But I am tired of being miserable here. I live in a not so great area in Connecticut. I know it’ll be a huge change but I’m ready for it. Been thinking of this since I was 21. In 29. This encouraged me to move.
We just moved to Conway. I agree with all your positives. I have one negative to add-the cost to register a car and the yearly taxes to pay on it. But hey, living near the beach and so many choices of things to do negates that. 😊
I live in Conway. Been here 3 years love it..We do need a whole foods,trader joes and or earthfare. No really good health food stores.. we don't like the fact they raised parking prices at beach. And banning bicycles at certain times at beach.. plus the keep building here..too much traffic...crazy
Carmen and Brain I Live like a 45 minute drive east from they make Hershey chocolate candy in a city call lebanon pa we are best known for baloney Deli meat And I am also close to Amish country in Lancaster county in Pennsylvania But use guys make me wanna change my mind on moving south I love the beach at Myrtle Beach SC and it has to offer I have friends who’s actually are living in Lexington SC and moved from Myerstown Pennsylvania he said he couldn’t handle the cold weather
very cool on the video, pro's and cons. nice to share that with folks. something to share with folks maybe is are you both still working, or are you retired? sometimes that makes a huge difference to people coming to the area. if you have jobs that you can work from home or remote, makes a huge difference, jobs in the area are tough i believe, depending on what you do. its so funny how i read people move to south carolina or to the beach and don't do some homework first about things, as you stated. doctors, insurance, etc. then they can't find jobs if still working, then move back home, or can't make it there. it is paradise there, but you have to no what is good for you and your family. but so great that your willing to share all that with your fans. keep up the good work. enjoy your videos. venture up to NMB more, please lol
When we moved here I was still working remotely. I would hope someone would research the job market or have one lined up prior to moving but I guess not everyone thinks that way. :)
I gotta wait until my sons older to move down but some benefits that I see to is 1. Fun things to do always 2. Jobs 3. Food options 4. The beach as you said 5. Fishing options 6. Paradise me personally I’m more happier when I’m down there versus anywhere else
Moved to the Conway/ myrtle beach area in 2006. My job transfer didn't happen so I got screwed on that. Husband is a very skilled welder with decades of experience and it was pulling teeth to get $12/hr. If you think you're going to get a well paying job think again. And housing costs are out of sight. Horrendous traffic in the summer. Allowed 1hr to drive 15 miles to work. That's my 2cents. We got out
Enjoy your videos. We are looking at moving down when I retire in just over 6 years. We live on Long Island, NY so I hear no cons in what you have said, lol. Having lived in NY all my life, the things you have mentioned are the norm for us. Keep the great content coming.
Oh wow, I always kinda thought you grew up in the area. I have to watch your moving series now! I'm hoping to move down there in retirement...hopefully in about 9 yrs. So can you say whereabouts you moved from? So AGREE on the flat, I like to bike the rail trails here in Maryland because they're flat and always bring my bike down with me on vacation because you can just ride everywhere down there...no hills!!
We have been thinking about moving to the area as we are retiring soon. We looked in Florida in the insurance and property cost have gone to high so moving to the myrtle beach area to look around plan on a few trips between now and the end of the year. What do u think of little river and conway?
We want to do this so so bad but we are scared of the floods and sad to leave other daughter who is reluctant to come. I’m at the age where I’m ready been for years and I probably just have to take the leap
It is definitely hard being away from family. That's probably the toughest part. And yes the storms are not fun either. Good luck with your decision! I can say that we do not regret ours.
Well Carmen I liked this video alot. Why? Because since I retired 3 years ago its always been a place my wife and I were going to move. She passed away 10 years ago from cancer but still want to do it. I want to move to the garden city beach Murrells Inlet area so I'm actively searching with realtors. I need a house big enough for my kids and grandkids to come. Maybe if I win the lottery all will be fixed lol. Thanks for all your videos. The pros out weigh the cons. I already live in SC. Spartanburg. Larry
Glad you enjoyed the video! I’m sorry about your wife. We pass through the Spartanburg area on the way to visit my family that lives in the North Carolina mountains. We were fortunate because property was worth a lot more were removed from than it is here. Obviously depends on where you want to live here, but overall the housing is cheaper here than where we moved from.
@@CarmenandBrianwell where I'm looking to move there is the garden city beach area or Murrells Inlet. Say hi when you come through Spartanburg we are friendly southern people. Id love to meet you and Brian on one of our trips down to the beach
You didn't mention the low property taxes. Once you have lived for a full calendar year, you get rebates for tourist tax and you pay no school tax. For seniors you can get a homestead exemption and a military exemption that further reduces taxes. This combined took a $3500 tax bill down to $1000 (living within Myrtle Beach city limits).
Great points if in the city limits and the homestead exemption.! We have a detailed video on the residential property tax process. th-cam.com/video/zJhFsJ2AolQ/w-d-xo.html
I'm new to your channel, so forgive me if this already has been asked; why did you leave North Carolina? I used to live in Charlotte and loved it before moving West for a job.
We had a vacation home in Myrtle Beach for 20 years before we moved. We spent every weekend and vacation we could at Myrtle Beach and decided that's where we wanted to live.
My husband and I have thought of retiring to Myrtle Beach( 5 years ) but as you said the traffic is terrible in the summer. Still thinking of snowbirding for a month or two in the off season. I think we would miss our family too much to move full time. Do you live in your vacation home or did you move somewhere else?
Have been following your channel since we decided to relocate to MB. We’ve been here for 3 weeks and other than the wacko drivers we love it. I’ve lived in a resort area in the past so the traffic doesn’t bother me. Plus I had to travel I95 everywhere I wanted to go so this is nothing. Insurance for us is less and we moved into a nicer house. I feel like I’m permanently on vacation. I had Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s and Wegman’s within a 20 min drive and never went to any of them so don’t miss them at all but everyone’s different. What I do miss is 1 day Amazon delivery! My mail comes the same time as before(late) and my garbage is picked up on the same day as before. Some things just don’t change. BTW, we relo’ed from Northern Delaware. Keep up the great videos. They help me decide where I want to go play!
Tourist season runs roughly from March through the end of October. There's also a peak around Thanksgiving and around New Year's. The busiest time is May through August.
That was super interesting and great to see you both on camera! I went to whole foods tonight after work which is across the highway from trader joe's near where I work so I'll think of you when I go to either of them! Do you feel safe enough to hunker down and stay through the really big hurricanes or would you evacuate?
More entertainment, easier access to more non-tourist stores like Costco, Kohl's, Sam's Club, Coastal Grand Mall, etc., closer to Charleston for "big city stuff", but mostly that's where we've had a vacation home the last 20+ years so we just like that area.
Where did you move from? Im asking because to give context to your perspective of living there (ex someone moving from a small rural area versus someone moving from an urban area, etc. )
Ok. Yes we would be moving from a pretty big Midwest city and used to a lot of amenities! Also, I think the winter onslaught of tourists and traffic may be a dealbreaker for us. Thanks!!
Must be nice for people who already have money moving into town, if you are a born and raised local it’s absolutely terrible, and local jobs will kick you to the curb the moment tourist season is over.
I have two realtors that I’m working with to find me a nice condo, preferably I would like to stay in North Myrtle Beach that is where I’m looking. I like barefoot Landing, and a few other areas. Tell me what area you live in and what you would recommend out of the flood area?
There are FEMA maps that can help you find out if what you are looking at is in a flood zone and your realtor should be able to advise you as well. There can be flood zones within a neighborhood while other parts of it aren't a flood zone so it's really important to look at those maps. Good luck!
It’s going to be hard for me the most because I’m actually moving from New Jersey in 2025 sometime with my parents and younger brother I lived here since I was a baby and I am in love with Roller Coasters and New Jersey is filled with amusement parks and I’m close to almost all of them and sadly South Carolina doesn’t really offer much and the biggest amusement park near South Carolina is Carowinds in Charlotte North Carolina. We do have a condo down which here we got in 2009
Crime, crowding, severe overgrowth without planning for roads needed to handles hundreds of thousands of new residents. Next on flooding, yes flooding since this area use be wetland and they filled in so much in diverting insane amounts of water to the rivers that they wont dredge. The county allowed developers to fill end endless swaths of wetland, swamp to build homes and shopping centers and couldnt care less how it affects the lower lying residents I have lived ob the grand strand since 91, it has only gotten worse and worse..
I love hearing positive feedback from people who relocate to Myrtle, I’ve talked to a lot of locals and you always hear nothing but the best… Looking forward to retiring there myself in about 4 years.
Hopefully you love it as much as we do! We definitely don’t have any regrets! Even the cons are just things to adapt, to not major negatives.
I am in such anxiety about moving to Myrtle Beach, missing my friends and family, and having more cultural resources, but I can't afford to stay where I am! I appreciate your sharing very much.
Hope it works out for you! It's not easy starting over but after over 2 years here full time, it's definitely feeling more like "home".
Me tooo my daughter and I are going to do it scared to death
Cons: traffic, heat, humidity, tourists, parking fees, horrible, HORRIBLE drivers, pollen season.
Pros: Beach, great weather(yes i know hurricanes), palm/palmetto trees. Lots of things to do around the area outside of myrtle, many places with great food. Open carry state.
No regrets moving here. Would we move back to pa? Heck no!
Thanks for sharing Carmen and Brian
Funny the pollen here is better than where we moved from in NC. There were tons of huge trees everywhere there so it was really bad. Glad you have no regrets like us! :)

Yes I can see that - lots of big trees in Conway! We hike out in the Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge sometimes near Conway.
Sounds like here in Hawaii. However I have happier memories from Myrtle Beach lol.
A video from Carmen and Brian!!! Always makes my day better! 😄👍🏽
Awww thanks! :)

Trader Joes and Whole Foods are both in Wilmington, NC. We live in Little River and it is a 50 mile drive........So we go about once a month.
Yes and they are both in Charleston also. Since we're in Myrtle Beach both are quite a haul. We usually go by Charleston on our way back from Florida to pick stuff up.
We went there last week and weather was great our best spot was crocodile rocks the piano bar was fantastic me and my girlfriend we will come back !
So glad you had a great time!
I have a home away from here in Myrtle beach...Right ON the ocean...my life long Dream finally came true
That’s awesome!

We hope you're able to visit again soon!
Hey, nice to see your happy faces! Glad you are happy with the move :) One day we will get to Myrtle Beach for a vacation.

Is the tourist season only July and August? I live in FL and it's year round tourism plus lots of snowbirds.
Tourist season runs roughly from March through the end of October. There's also a peak around Thanksgiving and around New Year's. The busiest time is May through August.
That was super interesting and great to see you both on camera! I went to whole foods tonight after work which is across the highway from trader joe's near where I work so I'll think of you when I go to either of them! Do you feel safe enough to hunker down and stay through the really big hurricanes or would you evacuate?
We stayed through Ian, which was only a category one. We would evacuate if required. They issue evacuation mandates based on what zone you live in.
Was there a reason you chose Myrtle over N. Myrtle?
More entertainment, easier access to more non-tourist stores like Costco, Kohl's, Sam's Club, Coastal Grand Mall, etc., closer to Charleston for "big city stuff", but mostly that's where we've had a vacation home the last 20+ years so we just like that area.
Anyone that lived in Carlsbad, CA relocate to Myrtle Beach, or vice versa?
Where did you move from? Im asking because to give context to your perspective of living there (ex someone moving from a small rural area versus someone moving from an urban area, etc. )
It was a reasonably large city in North Carolina.
Ok. Yes we would be moving from a pretty big Midwest city and used to a lot of amenities! Also, I think the winter onslaught of tourists and traffic may be a dealbreaker for us. Thanks!!
Must be nice for people who already have money moving into town, if you are a born and raised local it’s absolutely terrible, and local jobs will kick you to the curb the moment tourist season is over.

You’re definitely right about that. There is definitely a lack of large thrill coasters in the area.
Do Uber drivers do okay out there in Myrtle Beach?
Since we aren't Uber drivers we really have no idea.
Where did you move from?
North Carolina
Wait a second there's no whole foods? There's no Trader joe's?
Nope!! Not unless you drive to Charleston SC or Wilmington North Carolina
Yeah, but you don't have Britt's Donuts😁
