Have any questions about the area? Just reach out.
I enjoyed this video with one exception. You said that the area was originally inhabited by Charlestonians moving north which isn't true. It was originally inhabited by the Wando, Sampa, Kussoe and Sewee people. You made mention of the flora indigenous to this area but made no mention of the indigenous people.
@@GeeBee212You are absolutely right. I try to condense a good bit of information into a concise video and tend to miss a fair amount of necessary information I sometimes wish I could go back and correct. This being one of many cases I wish TH-cam would let me go back and edit/reword.
@@CharlestonTours Thank you so much for the acknowledgement.
Something to keep in mind, there are a lot of professional jobs within North Charleston and downtown Charleston. This means that if you have to commute from summerville to these areas for work, your morning commute may be a little under an hour and a half, coming both to and from the town. Traffic is a big deal in the town, so look into that if you're moving in.
Definitely going to include the traffic as one of the cons of the area. I’ve rarely had it take an hour to an hour and a half to commute from North Charleston to Summerville in my experience, though - that happens often for you or mainly when there’s a wreck or lane closure of some sort?
Best videos I’ve seen on TH-cam. Well done, Trey.
I appreciate you, man. Going to keep them coming!
concise, well done, and informative...thank you...
Thank you very much. Let me know if there’s any particular areas or topics regarding the area you’d like me to cover and I’ll see what I can do. Have a great day!
Great overview of the area. Short and sweet. Look forward to visiting soon.
Thank you so much. Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you ever need anything.
Very engaging and informative!

Great video!
Thank you so much!
As a native from Summerville the sweet tea capital of the world. Sweet tea is not an a acquired taste it is the taste. Summerville was a beautiful and quiet town but it has become overcrowded and not so affordable anymore. Housing and property taxes has gone up along with schools being overcrowded also. We have all the things he said but it comes with a price. With all the people moving here new roads have to be built. People have lost their homes or part of their yard because of a new road. Most people can't afford a new house because of the cost of housing. With more people moving you get more traffic and crime. We will protect ourselves if you know what I mean.
And that protection will likely run out because almost all the people moving here are the type to vote Democrat.
A crime written hellhole is the vibe i got actually.
@@BTWJ666 It is now!
Looks nice
Is it possible to do a drive around video ? Showing downtown and historic houses ?thanks. This was a great video btw.
Hi there, Im sorry for the delay in responding, but I have it on the calendar to do a drive around Downtown Summerville the week after next. I’ve found the driving videos to not be as entertaining but very informative. I’ll comment here once it’s posted!
Ice House and Laura's are both great!
Both have a delicious menu and great service. My daughter loves the outdoor kids park area at Ice House.
Do you have any information on Ravenel near Summerville? We are interested in the Homecoming Community in Ravenel. Thank you
Hi Donnamarie - I know the community well actually and have it in the works to capture on our video tours. True Homes is the builder there. Email me at trey@thebessentgroup.com and I’ll reply with all the info about it, and also I can go by this weekend and video or FaceTime/Zoom with you if you’d like.
Hi! Thanks for the amazing video! My husband and I are highly highly considering a move down to Summerville area from Columbus, Ohio (hopefully spring 2024). Do you see Ridgeville becoming more built up with restaurants, shops, etc. over the next few years?
Hi Allie! I’m so happy you liked the video. Very cool you guys are considering a move - happy to answer any questions you may have while contemplating your search. Great question about Ridgeville by the way, but very loaded question; in short, I think it will be a while before it gets to that point as it still has a population of less that 2000, and it’s one of the few places in the area that’s actually decreasing in population year over year. I do think that stat will change going forward given all the work opportunities and overall growing interest. The bang for your buck and typical lot size in Ridgeville comparably for the proximity is one of the many reasons of the growing interest. I’m going to do a video on Carolina Bay in Ridgeville soon which is one of my favorite neighborhoods in the area so I’ll try to do a more thorough overview of Ridgeville when I do. I hope this helps!
@@CharlestonTours thanks so much!! That’s very helpful; we are certainly interested in a bit less hustle and bustle but don’t want to be too far away from everything. We will be staying in Summerville the last two weeks of March and are very much looking forward to checking out the area!
@@CottagevilleCozies Awesome! If you guys want to get together and have either a little mini tour of the area or see some neighborhoods, let me know.
@@CharlestonTours that would be great! I’ll definitely be in touch
My wife and I are looking to relocate to the same area from the suburbs of Cleveland, OH; we're over the gloomy weather.
You are supposed to tell them about Hurricanes and earth quakes... Its not a small town anymore.
Ha, I will cover hurricanes in an upcoming cons video. Summerville has certainly grown over the last couple decades, and especially over the last few years.
suggestion - maybe reduce drone footage featuring parking lots
Thanks for the feedback.
god, I remember when there was like 3 people in Summerville 😆
The secret’s out haha. Jokes aside, it’s insane how much it’s grown over the last 20-30 years - infrastructure of course hasn’t kept up but most of the area has at least managed to keep it’s charm.
You don't look that old.😆
Does Summerville under flood zone and hurricay zone?
It is susceptible to hurricanes, but there aren’t any technical zones for it. As far as flooding, a majority of the city is in flood zone “X” being “low risk” and not required flood insurance. However, there are areas that are subject to flooding / standing water in certain areas, especially closer to the water and the coast.
Yeah, residents are fined thousands of dollars for removing a tree..... yet the town/developers are ripping them out by the THOUSANDS. It’s becoming a succession of strip malls and monster apartment complexes. Growth is out of control. Traffic is terrible. Small town feel is gone. I’ve been a homeowner/resident here for 25 years.
That stinks
Government always has been and always will be the problem. Unfettered development and courting of out of towners in pursuit of the almighty dollar regardless of community ecosystem dilution.
Summerville, SC is not much like Summerville, GA.
I had no idea there was a Summerville, GA. The Summerville here is special for sure!
@@CharlestonTours Summerville Ga was the home of Howard Finster, the late folk artist en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Finster
Don't listen to him we are not special. We are very over crowded.
Looks like a car-centric, anti-pedestrian hell.
It is.
So stay where you are.
Are there Hispanic people in Summerville? Lol weird question. Just wondering…
Hi Iris, there’s a great mix of many different ethnicities here in Summerville. According to the Census Bureau, we have a population of around 51,000 with about 6.1% of those being Hispanic.
They've recently been banned.
@@Rocket9944 what lol
How about talking about the downsides of living here? This is just a puff piece.
Interesting take. I’m actually thinking of doing a pros and cons video to further inform - outside of the traffic increase, bugs, and overcrowding in certain areas, what other cons would you say about the area?
@@CharlestonTours the cost of housing (especially if you're not rich), education, the hatred people feel for anyone who isn't southern and conservative.
@@parkerbrown-nesbit1747 what solutions do you suggest for housing costs?
@@itypedmynamehere1807 more grounded in reality. Our house, which is less than 1200 square feet, was 95,500 when we bought it 20 years ago. That's a ridiculous price for a house this small!
@@parkerbrown-nesbit1747 I’m not seeing your point. So if someone has a house and a buyer wants to pay them $435k for it, you would like to see them say to the buyer “no, $150k is enough. I refuse anymore money than that.”
We’re full. Go away.
Hello, we are on the other side of the pond and planning a move later this year. How can we get in touch with you via email?
Hi Herbert, thanks for reaching out. My email is trey@thebessentgroup.com - I look forward to hearing from you.
