I moved here 2 years ago from Miami, Fl. I absolutely love it. The weather is perfect , we get 4 seasons ,lots of places to hike and downtown offers great restaurants. This town is small compared to Miami but its young,fresh vibe is raising this town to be a vibrant city with great potential for new companies and small businesses. Cost of living is a plus and the small town charm and southern culture is still very much alive. People are friendly and pets are welcome just about everywhere. And did I mention, no traffic!
In my opinion, Greenville County seems to be a great area that is constantly improving and growing! From nightlife to job opportunities, this area is a great place to live and have a family. The one area that could use improvement is the traffic. However, there is roadwork in process to help fix this problem! Overall this is a great location for many reasons.
Greenville is a thriving community with hundreds, if not more, of people moving here everyday for job opportunities and the experience! South Carolina is one of the cheapest places to live in the country, and we have homes popping up everywhere. It is such a unique town that ranges from an outdoor community with the Swamp Rabbit Trail, a fantastic nightlife with downtown Greenville's comedy shows, bars, and live entertainment! Public schools are just as great as private schools, and Greenville is thriving to be more economic.
