Greenville Reviews
Rating 3.64 out of 5 372 reviews
Greenville is the perfect mash between city and suburban area. As a college town many resources are allocated to the community, allowing high school students, like me, to get a sneak peak of the college experience. Greenville has also provided me with great experiences and community outreach programs, such as Pitt Greenville Soccer Association (PGSA) and the local Food Bank. Although Greenville has treated me great for the past 17 years, I would love to see changes to the local hospital; ECU Health. My mother has been a speech pathologist for the past 20 years at ECU Health and we both agree the city should fund the hospital more, allowing employees to be rewarded more often and facilities to be updated.
If you're into going to church and raising a family, and can work in education or the medical field, then you might like Greenville. Otherwise, there's not much to do. Nightlife centers on a handful of bars near the campus. Most dinning options are chain restaurants - the Applebees does big business here. Crime is an issue - watch your back at the local Wal-Mart, actually, watch your back everywhere. It's just enough of a drive from the beach to be inconvenient, and is kind've in the middle of nowhere. They do have a river that runs through the town, but it's pretty filthy. Traffic is surprisingly bad for a small town.
we just moved to Greenville NC 2 months ago from New York, and i am so happy we found this place, i love how everything i need from
supermarkets, drugstores, gas stations, restaurants, movie theatre, hospitals, urgent care and more so close to me! the convenience is incomparable to our NY life! roads not congested, i don't miss being stuck in traffic for 45- 1 hour in NY! we go to outer banks, wilmington river walk and washington river walk on weekends, yea it's almost 2 hours drive bit it feels short coz the drive is easy and no traffic, compared to going to Jones beach in NY though its only an hour away but it will take us 3-4 hours bcoz of traffic. so the review of nothing to do here is incorrect! That person probably is just lazy lol! i highly recommend this place!
