I just moved to South Carolina from California. I was born and raised in Cali my whole life up until now. I was so in love with Cali that I always said I would never ever leave. Cali was, at least I thought, where I was MEANT to be and the best place in the whole US. I have been here in South Carolina or almost a year now and not only would I would NEVER go back to Cali, but I love it here SO MUCH that I am 30 years old and I truly want to stay here for the rest of my life. Not only is SC one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen, but the amazing, kind, humble, LOYAL & REAL people that live here is absolutely unbelievable. Literally the complete opposite of California. So, in my opinion, I don't agree with this at all. All the AMAZING positives that SC has, MAJORLY outweigh the negatives that are mentioned here. Just my opinion!

[@tracywagner272]

Welcome to SC, glad you are loving it.

[@feleciawallace8420]

@Amber Rowe -- I agree with your message, I was born/raised in Cali and relocated to Georgia during the year 2000, before then I declared most of my life that I would never ever live in another state, but we all know now that Cali isn't what it once was... Now after living in Georgia for 22 years, I'm ready to move/retire to either South or North Carolina... I've been researching/visiting particular cities but have not decided which area is best for me at this point in time.

[@kathrynmiller9622]

I was born raised in South Carolina and would love to return my home state. Yes South Carolina does have bugs and snakes but alligators I'm really curious about. Perhaps he's talking about Florida. As far as flooding goes, that can happen in any state. I'm really glad that you're enjoying my home state. I miss everything that's back there!

Moved here from south New Jersey in 2003. The northern attitude is horrible as well as the crime. We moved to SC and never went back, even to visit. The humidity, not the heat, is rough. The bugs are a pain but we had them in NJ. Taxes are everywhere in every state.COL SC rates #22 actually. And NC, SC, GA, FL, AL, MS all have the same type of bugs. Hubby lived in FL and his aunt used to kill palmetto bugs with a brick and hair spray. Blessings

I've been in South Carolina for 7years I was about 26 when I came. I was from Virginia and found that I had a hard time excelling with the pace and lack of opportunities in Virginia. I came to South Carolina and quickly realized it is a stable state for someone looking for life experience with little distractions, and a place to make and save money for the next move in your life. There are definitely pros and cons, one con being the closed mindedness of some of the locals, and one pro being the availability of fairly profitable work. I live in the upstate and find that it isn't a hard place to make work for you if you come with a plan

[@advisorSirAshley]

Thank you for sharing your experience!

[@joansmith1195]

I moved from the north to the upstate around 30 years ago. I loved until the past 2 years excessive litter has become a real problem. I called both local and state agencies and they came out once to clean up a large area that I couldn't get to as it touched a busy road. Litter is a huge problem and no officials seem able or willing to address it.

[@alrightnow7248]

@@joansmith1195 It's being done on purpose. The elites are destroying the land bc they know their empire is falling. They've sold the west coast to the Chinese and the east coast to the Russians.

So obviously there's a code in the elitist world to steal as much money as possible before the demise

My brother good comentary on the Carolinas. However iam from the west coast and really appreciate the quality of life that south Carolina offers. Been here since 2013 and absolutely love it. 1hour from Charlotte, 3 hours from atl , 4 hours from Jacksonville Florida, 3 hour from Tennessee. Also the coast of living is great to me .had a house built and living like a king 🤴. Also Health care for me is free thanks to my company. I agree this is the worst drivers 🚗 in the world

Born and raised here and a proud resident of South Carolina! Mostly everything you said is true but you should put an emphasis on the upper and lower state. 2 totally different cultures literally with different accents. Lower state has no job opportunities other than the tourist cities on the coast as opposed to the upper state of South Carolina!

[@Spartan_Kounty]

Exactly! Us in the upstate are totally different from the lower

[@eugeniabrown9906]

The difference is black and white. Guess which is which? The lower part of the state has the beauty and the rich culture. I make a point of going down to the lower part of the state at least twice a year. Beaches, rich culture, entertainment, etc. St. Helena Island/Penn Cemter is one of my favorite spots. 🖤

I totally understand. I'm moved to Columbia with my now ex fiance. I have no family here. Everyone is in California.

[@PurgPurg]

I’m really sorry to hear that. I don’t know how elderly you are but it’s never too late to try and reevaluate what you want. Maybe you don’t need a house to be happy and the American dream isn’t all it’s cracked up to be; maybe finding new friends and companionship with people your age could be a short term goal. I don’t know, I hope your situation improves though. Columbia isn’t the best place for jobs

Facts

[@kimdoes32]

Rock Hill, SC born and raised! 😂 this made me laugh. It’s all true 💞 I said the above before watching the whole video. Not a fan of the gates of hell stuff or the fact that you and your family were yelled at (or made to feel like they were yelling ‘Let’s Go Brandon’ at you) I am white and conservative. And any true conservative would not tolerate those actions. It’s unfortunate that people are straying so far from God that they hate over something as small as pigment and culture. Embrace it people! We won’t be fixed until we let love lead us. South Carolina is a very beautiful place. We do have a lot of poverty stricken towns that I would love to see built back up. I bought a house in Chester in 2013. Chester is a dying community, but it has so much potential! It’s really sad to see such a beautiful area deteriorate right before your eyes.

[@augustusbrown5320]

However, the sales tax on a vehicle is 5% or a limit of $500. In Virginia, you pay the local sales tax rate. If you buy a $50,000 car in VA sales tax is at least $2,500 and you still have a personal property tax every year. In SC, the sales tax limit is still $500.00.

Only part that threw me off was saying SC drivers are slow. Even the slow lanes here go 10 or more over and on interstates everybody in the 90-110 range

[@concernedcitizen4031]

Also low min wage. Right on about mosquitos. Back in the day they used to drive thru neighborhoods spraying from trucks. We didnt have flying roaches back then either.

[@1nichole1]

I am from the Charleston area (Summerville) and I must agree to the healthcare or insurance across the board is way more expensive! However, it was the most wonderful place to lived and the most welcoming and kind people there. They were the most uplifting people that I have ever met. You don’t have to worry about gaining weight from all the delicious food because you will be happy and have plenty of beautiful weather to get out to enjoy the endless activities they have to do all year round. Yes, the heat may be there, but I prefer it to that nasty white four letter word “snow”. South Carolina is a paradise to live in and Summerville is like living in a present day “Mayberry”!

[@jasonkelley5600]

I was raised in Sumter, SC. My son and sister are still there. I left after I graduated high school and never came back (to live) mainly bc of the economic opportunities. I love the heart of the people there but if your not “southern” in speech or thinking they tend not to be open or accepting. If you’re into different cultures and you’re an open minded person, it may not be the state for you. I now reside in Dallas Tx which is home for me and I love it Houston too! There’s a lot of economic opportunity out here and it’s very diverse. I love to visit and kick it in SC but I could never live there again.

[@michaelrains2268]

What? We love ❤️ Dixie here in S.C. , it's not up north so yea there are alligators, swamps ect . We also have beautiful mountains, beaches, and fascinating historical areas ie pirates , British colonies, American revolution, cradle of the Confederacy, beautiful historical homes in Charleston and other places. No , it's not perfect no where is however as a born n bread S.C. native I wouldn't want to call anywhere else home. Enjoy all your blessings 🙌 and a wonderful day.

As someone who has lived in the lowcountry part of South Carolina for 17 years, I will say, the flooding part in my area is only when a hurricane comes close or skids by. My area, Beaufort, Bluffton, Hardeeville, Okatie, Ridgeland, Hilton Head, is full of bad drivers!! People flying through traffic without a care in the world. So many accidents everyday. Now my area also has alot of shootings! I know alot of areas or states do, but alot of shootings, retaliations, drugs. I would definitely want to watch a video of just the lowcountry, I think alot of people need to know what is going on in my area, alot of people move here.

[@samuelglover7685]

I assume that, in typical Southern "logic", the remedy to increased shootings is -- get even *more* guns out there. Make it *easier* for people to get ever more guns. I'll bet the local (Republican) politicians wrap it up in the American flag and blather about "freedom". Doesn't sound like you're seeing a lot of "freedom", eh?

[@MeltinJohn]

Ya that's why I left SC and went to FL too. I figured nothing to lose. A lot more to do there. And it's not that much more for rent even if it is. But then along the way I found that FL lost its swing state status overnight and they're trying to make it more boring like SC. Like a proposed curfew even in Ybor city. It's getting deep red in FL too like in SC. I had to come back here to find that out though.

[@patrickstallings9613]

Clever approach. 👍🏼Best part of Charlotte/Rock Hill region is PERFECTLY located between mountains and beaches. Just far enough away you appreciate both when you get there. Not too close you take for granted and not too fat away you never go. 3 hrs ish either way. As 1 who hates lots of traffic yeah just stay away from SC. lol

Ah yes, LI! I visited my grandma often up in Bellmore, usually during the summer. Pops worked as dispatch at Bellmore Taxi some time ago before moving to Maine. Spring weather's nice, but the traffic congestion is for the birds....Didn't know that bit about the property taxes though.
