I truly love living here. It took me a few years to find my people, but now that I have a community, I am very happy. Rock Hill has a lot to offer, and it is so exciting to watch the town grow! There is truly a place for anyone in this town- if you’re willing to look you will find great people and places. Downtown is thriving right now and it’s really an exciting time to live here.
I was born and raised in Rock Hill and currently starting my senior year. I love the southern hospitality here and the different types of people you meet from different states since we are the 5th largest city in South Carolina. I also love our elected officials in this city that really care about their job and citizens by making sure we are improving every day whether it's in roads, jobs, electricity, etc. Some things I would like to be seen changed are housing and new job opportunities for those unfortunate to be living in horrible conditions without food to look forward to everyday or even a roof over their head.
Rock Hill is a small town, big on sports kind of place to live. The area is really growing and welcoming to new residents. There is plenty of employment available and the new transit system helps you get to your designation quickly. There is still a need for more shopping venues because the mall needs more retails. It is just 15 minutes from Charlotte, NC, home of the Carolina Panthers. I think they have a pretty good school system starting with grade school to high school. There is tremendous opportunities in the area for everyone. It has a small town feel that has plenty of thing to do with kids, like the BMX facility, kayaking, soccer, the tennis center, all of the neighborhood parks with basketball goals and the new sports arena that brings in big sports fans. They are different events throughout the year like the Come See Me Festival something for everyone, FoodTruck Fridays downtown at the beautiful fountain, ChristmasVille that spans for over a week with different events.
