Very informative! We love that there's four seasons, milder weather, lower taxes, and more things which we can experience down there; however, someone considering moving to the area might also like to see a video about things, say, like the expenses of utilities, registering your car for the first time, additional costs like subscriptions to fire coverage(something I learned about watching a video on TN). It's some of those additional cost for things which we might not consider when relocating.
Nonetheless, I heard many years ago about how beautiful the Greenville area was; it's just taken us too many years to start thinking about fleeing from up north.
I don't care about sports so much I want a cheaper cost of living, better weather, freedom from big city crime/traffic/noise, a little space to garden, raise like 2 or 3 chickens and not so close I hear my neighbors snoring. Can I find that?
Great job buddy! Look forward to exploring the area when I come out there.
I just moved here. It's nicer than Asheville NC.
I moved 30 minutes outside of Greenville from S. Florida 3 months ago and I’m so glad I moved here (Greer) vs Greenville. The downtown of Greenville is great, but the appeal for me stopped there. Greer is absolutely beautiful and the population is less densely populated here.🙏🏼
how’s duncan sc? you know?
thinking of doing the same but man I would miss the swamps down here. Falls Park in Greeenville is great, but the swamps, oak hammocks down here are something I would really miss.
@@dw6465 Sorry, just seeing this now. I’m sorry but I don’t know anything about Duncan.
Loved the Lazy Goat. I was there 3 weeks ago and had a wonderful time ☺
Literally giving VERY serious consideration to moving to a community just outside of Greenville. Really enjoying and appreciate the videos you have posted. Researching schools and golf as we speak.
Moving there next May! So excited!

Clemson fan here who enjoyed your video. Keep bringing the great information.
Gamecock fan here, who is happy to accept a Clemson fans praise 😂 thank you for watching!
@@livinginsouthcarolina go cocks!
Moving there next month from Las Vegas, can't wait excited. Thank s for the videos
You fkn up bruh 😳
@@1deep499 I don't think so. I missed the green grass and the trees and my family is in TN. Got tired of the 115 degree summers and all the people and traffic and everything is cheaper in SC.
Have you visited there in the summer months? From Vegas to 95 % humidity is going to be a serious shock for you.
@@scottgorman7166 I have lived in Florida, NC and grew up in PA. I know about the humidity.
@@johnhornsby6759 yup you know what its all about....I was a fellow east coasted.....LI NY long time ago....looking there also, gotta see if the wife can handle the humidity. Been in the west for 40 years, she is a west coaster.
“Absolutely”
I'm sorry..... I know it's off topic, but I am dying to know where that light came from!!!!!

My! A glowing review of a city from a realtor who, let me guess, just might have some properties for sale there? What a surprise! That's what I really enjoy, a clear and concise review of a city from someone that has absolutely no vested interest in it! I guess it could be worse. Like Shakespeare said, "The first thing we do, we kill all the lawyers". I wish no one any harm, always been a peaceful sort of guy. But I wouldn't mind some people being rode out of town on a rail, and I don't even know what that means. Sounds good though.
Yes, he doesn't mention the negatives. So hot and muggy that it's like a steam bath. Mosquitoes are relentless. Car insurance is high because roads and even side walks can't keep up with the influx of transplants. People ignore road signs because they know police can't keep up in a sea of cars. I miss the old,quiet Greenville.
Not even finished the video and instantly email you. Hope to hear back and prepare my moving with you.
Fantastic!
Just want to make sure we’ve connected. Did you email info@livinginsc.com?
@@livinginsouthcarolina yes I did check it out
You gotta know them back roads
We are 61 and 66 we are older but modern and love to dance, concerts and want to move near family in Charlotte my parents died, no kids and original southwest Texans and Dallas. You seem like a great spot. We would love a home and we are happy and back and love people. Room for 2?
Kay! We would love to have you guys!
Shoot us an email info@livinginsc.com
The downtown is definitely what makes Greenville awesome!
what are the Best places to stay in Greenville?
I'm moving here next week from Portland. Gonna start a craft brewery. Do Greenvillians like beer?
No, not really surprisingly. Sorry. Maybe try Greenville NC.
That’s not true. Yes we do.
Just don't bring the liberal politics with ya from Oregon
What Adam said. If you’re a “woke” Portland leftist, pls don’t come here. We’re normal ppl and we don’t need your woke bullshit.
Yes!
Nah, the interstate is the worst way to travel. There are always wrecks near Spartanburg and Anderson. It’s easier to go backroads imo. You can find multiple alternate routes but when you are on the interstate, you’re stuck until the next exit
I wish I knew how amazing and affordable it is
I hooe it doesn't get too crowded. I might be making the move next year. But I want to be isolated. Meaning zero neighbors. Don't want to be able to see a neighbor. Hope that's still a possibility.
If you have a lot of money or don’t mind being an hour away that’s possible. I moved from upstate NY where we lived on 5 acres to here in Greer SC on .75 acres. That is considered a big lot here.
How many months out of the year do you experience extreme heat? 90's?
Please stop inviting people here. Rich people taking over means us plebes can't afford the oxygen we breathe.
Hey want to move there and we're not rich. Lol
@@bottlebazooka Same, and we've said the same thing in Colorado for the last 20 years.
@@renegadetenor and Arizona
That’s one of the many wrong things that has happened to my hometown of NYC. This has always been a highly desirable city to visit and live for many. But for many years, not that many would stay. Things have gotten SO out of hand here on every level, but ESPECIALLY the cost of living in general. I want to head south so bad!! I love the heat. But the cost of living and population is increasing as well. Idk where on this planet would be good for me. I just really need a good safe place to swim, warm weather, billiards, animals, nature and a rodent free, nice affordable place to live. Oh, of course, healthy, affordable fresh food. As that too much to ask for?😂
@Timothy Eide I mean...if you can afford to buy a house here, you're rich. I'm a first-year teacher and cost of living is a big yikes.
I want to move there
Do it! We can help!
Greenville is an endless sea of orange and garnet. I myself, prefer purple.
Go paladins
My best friend worked at the lazy goat😂
Bro, when? I might know them 😂
Shoutout to George at Papi's Tacos, should mention that place too!
Columbia has too much Cement
Man, I wish I could move to Greenville today. The dang housing market /:
We want you to be able to do that too! What are your concerns? We would love to chat with you and go over any reservations you have or questions about the market. You never know what your options might be! ☺️
Maybe that a 3br is 350k down there lol.
@@TacoCrisma If that's the case, that Greenville is a no go for me
@@BavinckGuy just spent an hour last night looking around SC at comparable cities to where I currently live - the housing prices are nuts down there. They also don’t list sq footage or year built a lot which is super annoying.
@@TacoCrisma Greer's prices look more affordable. Might just look there
SC is full, no vacancy
Dude. Clemson fans are obnoxious?!?!?! Obviously, you’ve never met anybody from UVA. Moved here from there and love it. 😊😊
Moving there in November, from Chicago
Go figure another damn Yankee coming folks
@@chrisp.c2065 yankee?? He said he’s from Chicago….
If you’re a “woke” leftist asshole, don’t come here, you’re not at all welcome. We’re normal.
How is it?
Naperville here moved 4 years ago - Congratulations and Welcome! Prepare to say "Bless Your Heart" to the h8ers here :)
You "wish you'd known" how beautiful it is? How good the food scene is? This is a real estate promo, nothing more.
This comment is called “trolling”
Nothing more.
@@livinginsouthcarolina real estate agents... dime a dozen.
@@livinginsouthcarolina 🧐
@@livinginsouthcarolina - She’s not wrong and not a troll.
o
Do Not Move to Greenville SC keep your ass up North
We actually see the majority of our re-locations from out west!
@@livinginsouthcarolina Greenville is turning to a crap hole
@@dirtcycle1773 you should visit downtown, it’s actually quite nice
@@livinginsouthcarolina how about all the worthless people living in tent on the swamp trail that nice never have we had this much homeless litter bug in greenville
Can't see how you worked at The Lazy Goat and didn't realize almost all of these things that you say you "wished" you knew. Kinda hard to buy that presumption, no offense.
Please explain how working somewhere AFTER I moved here would change the things I knew BEFORE I moved here.
I don't mind heat; could care less about football. Just give me enough space to bicycle a couple hours a day..
The rural part is great, the city is crap, homeless people everywhere.
Greenville has a very limited number of homeless. This is an unsubstantiated comment.
Gentrification brought to you by the Blue state migration.
Myrtle Beach better tho
Lol, we are gonna have to agree to disagree
It is a tourist trap. Locals hate MB. Just FYI. Crimes is too high!
