I grew up in Fort Mill and plan to continue living here as my own family grows! Fort Mill is known for having an outstanding public school system. We also have several grocery store chains, local and chain coffee shops, small town shopping, and great restaurants. Outdoor recreation here includes Lake Wylie and the Ann Close Springs Greenway, which also has a dog park! Fort Mill is very safe and family friendly, which is why I intend to stay long term. It is also conveniently located adjacent to Charlotte, NC, which is a major hub for financial and health care jobs. When I was growing up, both of my parents had health care field jobs in Charlotte and could easily commute to and from Fort Mill.
What's your goal for your living situation? If you weren't able to answer that question quickly, with plenty of detail and confidence, Fort Mill isn't the place for you.
I'd never say Fort Mill is a BAD place to live. It's just not a good place to migrate to without a very detailed plan on what you're going to do. Do you have a job setup? Have you done your research on what kind of living situation you want? Do you know what industries pay livable wages? Are you certain they'll fulfill your medical and Social Security needs?
Fort Mill is a great suburb. It's extremely low-crime, and the people there are very kind and welcoming. The city is still building itself up, but is growing VERY fast. Bad drivers and horrible roads, but nothing that can't be dealt with. Distance to specific areas of Charlotte and its amenities is a huge selling point.
You need a detailed plan, though. You likely won't make enough money to survive in Fort Mill without one! Please keep this in mind.

I know Fort Mill has really good schools but it is the most overrated Town filled with a bunch of rich kids who drive Jeeps and parents who think that they're Mitt Romney. There are very few non-chain restaurants ,traffic is beginning to be atrocious and it's just very overrated with 0 personality or character. Everything is a facade from the fake Charleston style Carriage Houses to the charm, everything has been tore down and built to look that way in the last 15 years. It's a weird place too because everything is either very affluent or very trashy.
