Please delete this video, we have enough of Greenville in top 10 videos every year for the last 15 years. Please stop, the people moving here in the last 5 years behave, drive like a-holes like the State they came from. Please delete.

Car insurance 2nd highest , 5 increases in 3 years due to the bad drivers in SC ...

This video is very well written.

Im from Tampa,FL,i can take the heat.

The grass is not always greener on the other side.

I moved here 2 years ago for a fresh start and a better life. And one this is 100% accurate the traffic is freakin ridiculous! And to top it off, no one seems to know how to drive here lol. Blinkers, tailgating, 10 miles under the speed limit, cell phones at the wheel scrolling fb lol not paying attention the light has turned green. And much more. Like almost everyday on my commutes. Idk maybe it’s bc I’m from upstate ny we like to “move our ass” so to speak.

11th generation upstate SC. I have an Idea. DONT MOVE HERE. ITS FULL! Northerners have destroyed Greenville and they all have the attitude that they are doing us a favor by gracing us with thier presence.

Some people in Greenville are public servants. My Godmother worked hard to help Greenville be at it's best. I love my Aunt; she is the kind of person that you want to help your communities in so many ways. She works so hard, she never has a day off. Has a very busy schedule. I wish i had her energy. She could be the president of the United States if she wanted to. She's a great leader.

Greenville middle school was brutal in the 80's because of the buses. Kids sitting on the floor, standing up, 4 to a seat, some sitting on other's laps 🤯😵‍💫😵😫😱!!!! I wish i could be compensated for all the traumatic situations, tbh, but it wasn't as bad for me as it was for others!!! Alot of bullying, mean teachers, mean principals, mean kids. Go to Palmetto. Their standards are very high. When they go on a field trip, Palmetto students have a reputation for being the best behaved students. I thank Principal Adkins. He was a class act. RIP Mr. Phibbs, THE SPIRIT OF PALMETTO MUSTANGS! 🐎🐎🐎🐎⚾️🏈🏆🏀🏐

I have a pink Himalayan salt lamp sitting beside me too cuz! 😊🦩

I live in New Jersey and definitely I ave South Carolina in mind to move and get my construction company going there

Interested in TR as an option and was wondering if there are various kids programs for sports and outdoor activities. Thanks for the content, great stuff!

I visited Greenville recently, looking for somewhere out East to move to. Too much traffic for me, and, I really get the feeling it's for the younger crowd. Nice condos, nice hiking trails.

I think y'all need to clarify it's the humidity that makes it feel "hot" right? Because 90 degrees is not "hot" (or I'm a bitter 123 degree weather Arizonan 🤷🏻‍♀️ sorry 😬👀)

Hey! My wife and I will be moving to Greenville soon. I would love to be in walkable downtown but she would like a single family home. We compromised on any neighborhoods with close proximity to the swamp rabbit since I can simply bike into downtown. Which single family neighborhoods still have good proximity to downtown for a shortened bike ride?

Your video is on point!! I moved to Greenville 2 years ago from Westchester, NY and I can tell you, people from up there don’t care about traffic jams here, and roads are still in worse condition in the north due to snow plowing.

Greenville is a top contender for our retirement location from Florida. I love this video. It doesn't scare us from relocating there, but love the honesty. Every community has its challenges. Greenville has proved to do just that over the years.

Oh hey im in the banking industry as well. 2025-2026 will be a better time to buy. We are in housing bubble bigger than 08. We have so much new construction in the upstate that will also help level out prices. Florida and Texas are crashing right now and the smaller markets like Greenville will follow shortly after. With the income to avg home price ratio, its not sustainable. It does NOT matter if interest rates come down a half a point. The purchase price is too high. Also with taxes and insurance sky rocketing, first time home buyers and lower income earners cannot afford this.

I went to Greenville last week and fell in love right away, I live in Georgia and am looking to move to South Carolina for employment in law enforcement and Greenville is at the top of my list.. I’ll be renting

Skeeters! lol 🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟

I'm so confused.....Why would anyone think of moving to Greenville South Carolina?

Seems like a great place to live💯

This list applies to literally every city? Dumb.

Do you know how much an RN makes in Greeneville hospitals or surrounding areas in 2024? I can't find any information online. Thank you

Stay y’all ssa where y’all at

Born here, raised here, family has been here or near here for 250 years. Your assessment of life in Columbia is quite fair and on-target. When new folks from up north ask how do you get used to the heat of that miserable 3 months of summer, I tell them "You don't". Winter temps are mild but the humidity can add a bit of extra chill that is not very pleasant. Everything else is very nice. We used to get top-notch touring acts decades ago, but you are a 2-2.5 hour drive from anything you might want for a big show. Or, the mountains, the ocean and beach, lots of really good things. Depending on how often you do a particular activity, its either pretty good or not-so-good. But, for most people for day-to-day living, its a very good place to be. This is mostly a government town. dominated by higher ed, retail banking, state and federal government, that sort of thing. The manufacturing base is and always has been a bit thin as compared to metro Greenville or Charleston. As our narrator above kinda' mentioned, that is by design. The two economic centers of the state, the Upstate and Low Country, put the political center out of harms way in the middle. Go to the navigable headwaters of the Santee-Congaree rivers, look for a high spot of ground above the malarial mosquitos of the day, and you have Columbia. Lots of people look at Columbia and see a lot of money and think they can sell upscale products here in quantity. But, a lot of the money is in tied up in old money, and they didn't get to be old money by spending a lot of it freely. Plan on selling a lot of high-end sports cars and other trinkets of conspicuous consumption? You will starve. You plan on selling a boatload of Kia's and lots of groceries and work clothes to people that go into the office to work for a living? You will do just fine. All in all, I love the place! Great place to grow up, great place to grow old...

It’s GreenVULL and the only regret we have is moving away.

The dark side is all the people moving here from up north or out west.

I’m from Maryland, me and my mother are currently driving all over SC looking for areas with land (2+ acres) decent healthcare and low crime rate. Any ideas?

Dear Mr David I spent 4 months in Greenville sc i visited the whole city its an amazing place, nobody regrets visiting Greenville 🫡

If you're remote it's pretty cool. Don't have to commute, can afford housing near downtown, and there's thousands of miles of hiking trails, and mountain bike trails within 1.5 hours.

The entire east coast growth is out of control. Never ending traffic and more people flooding into the country every day doesn’t help. Other than that, things are great.

One thing about Greenville, South Carolina they’ve been pushing everyone out of their communities and people have been moved here says low-key racist

Disingenuous and misleading. The Nicholtown example compares an abandoned house (i.e. a vacant lot) to a new renovated multi-lot home. Additionally the mixing of Greenville county and Greenville city creates a false narrative. Towns like Simpsonville, Mauldin, and Travelers Rest are great places to move to. The roads are bad in most of the state, that part is true.

4 hours to the beach is crazy

Thinking of moving here. Dont worry I'm moving from California but me snd my family are VERY conservative, and that's why we want to leave this blue state.

Swimming pools! Unless you specifically want one they are a nightmare.

Can you recommend a county to build a self sufficient homestead on 2-5 acres of land WITHOUT a large possibility of yearly flooding, but still near adequate water? 🙏🏾 I'm looking to finally escape the big city of NY and live off my own land.

My whole family of 20 is moving to Greenville we plan to bring more

This lifelong proud New Englander wouldn't move south for many different reasons! Primarily because of the heat and humidity and more horrific hurricanes! We get tail ends of hurricanes and the last big one was Hurricane Bob in 1991, over 30 years ago. But remember, there's no such thing as Utopia, a perfect place to live! All states, cities and towns have their problems, some more than others. Seems like there are more problems today than ever before! "Home is where the heart is', so follow your heart as well as your brain! Lots of videos on KZfaq on why you shouldn't move to S.C.! Good luck and best wishes to all~

What are the best areas and neighborhoods to live?

All true. Thank you for this video. I’ve been here since 2009. I host an open mic downtown at Coupe’s Corner on Wednesdays at 7pm. Please stop by sometime and say hello.

Born in Greenville but now live in Charleson here! A couple honorable mentions you should include: The Old Sheldon Parrish ruins outside of Beaufort. The Annual Christmas James Island County Park Festival of Lights. Football game at either Clemson or U of SC!

Based on 6% interest rate with 5% down: If I buy a home for $285000, am I only paying $15900 extra for the house after 30 years.... A total of $302010 Or is it practically paying double for the house ($751230) after 30 years... Thank You

The interesting part about real estate is that you’re self employed. This is informative. It’s data backed. I live outside the city and properties are flying off the shelf. Yes, he’d love to help a viewer to buy or sell a home. It’s how he makes a living. I’d like to help said buyer with a mortgage. At the end of the day, true real estate professionals focus on advising and educating, and informing prospective buyers and sellers. People come to us for information and guidance. It’s not buying a car or a t shirt at target. It’s a big decision. KZfaq and other social platforms are great sources for local information.
