I moved to the South Carolina Lowcountry over 40 years ago.
Best move I ever made. Conservative values and family really matter.
As far as politics I've learned that the best way to get along with each other is simply don't discuss politics.
South Carolina is a horrible place. They discuss politics with you I tell them I support President Joe Biden. For a better stronger less racist country
@@AllLies-xg9ck biden has said some pretty racist stuff lol

@@AllLies-xg9ck …you’re so funny…😂🤣🤣😂😁🤣🤣🤣
@@AllLies-xg9ck People in SC don't get a decent civics education, so they have no idea how their government works or what local elections are for. Our education system also doesn't teach critical thinking. It's incredibly frustrating to see people in my community say absurdly illogical things like "If you want things to get better, stop voting for democrats"
What on Earth are you talking about? The vast majority of our politicians in SC are REPUBLICAN, and have been FOR DECADES. How could they possibly blame our issues on "democrats"???
The ugly truth about SC and the Bible Belt is that fundamentalist Christianity often overlaps with bigotry, and that's the real reason they vote red (against their own interests); the GOP is afraid of anyone different, just like they are.
Thanks so much, been trying to find a nice americana Republican area with some humanity in these last days and I think South Carolina and Montana is one of them but I’m definitely leaning towards South Carolina thank you so much happy new year 🙏✝️
Go to Montana.We're over crowded here.
@john ball Apparently not everyone in South Carolina has that southern hospitality 😒
@victoriakapshaw I'm a native South Carolinian that now lives in Alabama. We'll be charitable to anyone, but the more people who move to our state the more it changes into something we don't want it to change into. I personally have seen more California and New York license plates in the last few years than I ever have in my life. We don't want our southern states slowly turning into New York and California.
@@djcogdill9263
I agree. I live in Camden, used to never see California license plates, now they’re everywhere.
@@johnball8758 South Carolina is NOT overcrowded. The population density is actually quite low. Prices are still far cheaper than North Carolina.
S.C. "Strictly Conservative"
Also, there's a difference between acting friendly and being friendly.
We’re as nice as can be!
@@livinginsouthcarolina I am originally from small town Ohio. Lived in south Florida for almost 16 years. It's like night and day. But I wanted to take my family to south Carolina for vacation. We went to beauford s.c. I feel like Florida really hardened me as far as socializing. It's really head down keep plowing. But we got to beauford and people would just come up and greet you out of the blue. And made me feel like I was back in Ohio.
I act friendly all the time. You never know what someone is going through but genuinely nice people will put on an act so they don't spread negative vibes. Acting nice in itself is still nice 👌
@@dope_prolific I concur...in fact, we're living in a time where raising your vibrational energy (such as through focusing on positives) is more important than ever.
@@livinginsouthcarolina I lived in South Carolina a couple years and indeed met a lot of nice people. 😀
So it’s not chaotically busy, not tons of bar hoppers and partiers, everyone’s friendly, no hazardous winters, and close to the mountains? I’ll take it.
Me too!
Looking to retire in South Carolina in five years. Now I can't wait to go. Thank you for the hard truths. People need to know the reality!
Might wanna start research and visiting now, so by that time you know exactly what/where ya want
No don’t go their it’s horrible place bad shooting humans are killed and jobs are bad your not safe and number one I know this place is pretty but on the inside is not what you think I lived their I was born their schools are bad children bring GUNS to school their was a kid I’m my middle school class who murderd a kid
My brother and my mom are going South Carolina not me no thank you I don't like your fascist style politics I don't like the right wingers they're evil. When I was visiting South Carolina I threw all my garbage on the ground. I was not happy at all. With the people they're all white supremacist It's basically Nazi. The only thing good about South Carolina was the weather the food the people know stay away.
@@latinamarie80 I did visit South Carolina I was not impressed 😡 The only thing good was the food the weather. Everything else NOT GOOD
@@AllLies-xg9ck I feel that same way!
One thing I truly hate about South Carolina is litterbugs. If people took pride in themselves and did not trash the roads it would certainly make South Carolina a lot more appealing. South Carolina has the potential of being a truly beautiful state.
Your right about that trash and cans all over the sides of the roads.whats up with that. They need too hand out huge fines for that.
Yes! I’m from California and I have the same viewpoint on littering. My kids and I do not litter. Los Angeles has so much trash and dog feces from people not holding themselves to a high standard and therefore not respecting a high standard for their community. I’ve lived in multiple states and seems littering is an issue in all of them, unfortunately.
I pick-up so much trash on my own property at the road it's disgusting ... And I live out in the country ... Unfortunately, people have rentals on the lake, but still it's the locals too.
Totally agree
As a resident of SC I agree 100%. I'm not sure what causes these people to not care so much but yep you can see litter around every corner here.
Thank you for not sugar coating the facts!!
I'm from NYC and i'm retiring in around 4 years. These sound like great "problems" to me.
I just want a nice home for around 450K in a quiet neighborhood that isn't too far from shopping and hospitals. I don't want to have to drive half an hour every time i want to go out for typical errands or a doctors visit.
Florida used to be an appealing option many years ago, but i have seen many people regret moving out there, and the prices of homes have also gone way up.
I have many clients with a long term retirement plan and moving to SC. We’d love to make that happen for you! Our team can serve anywhere in SC. Would love to connect with you.. feel free to reach out! ☺️

@@livinginsouthcarolina Thanks, you might be hearing from me in about 4 years, lol.
Check Columbia, I don't like Fl for its extreme hot weather
@@mike-uw6wt Your statement is just not true. I live here and healthcare is great.
@@dcaseng I hope you really like litter. The entire state is covered in people's garbage. Even the country roads with a mile between homes.
Winters rarely drop below 40 and a lot conservatives? Sounds like a great escape plan from Illinois!
and Connecticut
And the People's Republic of The State of New York.
Well done. One man's junk is another's treasure - SC sounds like a gold mine to me.
I’m a friendly northerner (Long Island, NY) and I would love to move to SC. Almost every vacation I have been on since I was 12 (54 now) has been in SC. Myrtle Beach, No. Myrtle, Hilton Head, and Charleston and I love going back. I’m thinking of visiting the upstate area this summer. Greenville is somewhere I definitely want to explore. We are a conservative family and NY is just not somewhere we want to be anymore.
What's wrong with drugs, violence, and crime? Oh, did you speak? To jail with you! Lighten up! It's just tyranny!
Anderson SC sounds like the place for you. Very laid back with conveniences just a couple minutes away.
How’s your search and exploring going??
Also in my 50’s and from Long Island. We’re also thinking of visiting, possibly moving. With no family in SC all research im doing presently is on-line.
I was raised in Maine but I've lived, attended college (Go Gamecocks!), and will be moving back to SC when I retire in a few years. It may not be for everyone but its my home and will always be in my heart. To the ones connected to the state you know what I mean. For the ones who don't like it there, thats okay! There are plenty of other states to suit your need.
I'm a Clemson fan, but welcome you back to SC anytime. I live in Anderson SC and retired 2 years ago. Loving every minute of it.
Love it! Can't wait to get there! All pros in my book.
Big city vibe is exactly why i would move there. I absolutely hate big cities
Same
I lived in Spartanburg South Carolina three times to visit. Once I lived there for a year and everything you say here is true. I could not have said it better
South Carolina is a horrible state I hated it with a passion 😡 The only thing positive I have to say about South Carolina is the food was good the weather. Everything else NOT The people were horrible white supremacist type. It's a horrible place. I never want to go back ever. North Carolina is just as bad.
Everything I'm looking for 100%. Moving there end of this month. Very happy to leave the toilet bowl also called Chicago. Crime, liberals of the worst kind, high taxes, on and on it goes.
Oh you have seen nothing yet.
same. out of boston asap
@@CC-br9qg Massachusetts according to World is one of the best states.
@@W81Researcher depends on your political leaning. to me it's awful. born and raised here. moving to a state that respects human rights. healthcare sucks here too. it's not as advertised.
@@W81Researcher insufferable people. hate it. hard to be around
Great video!! Thank you!
We moved from Atlanta to Beaufort County SC at the end of 2020. We are an 1 1/2" south of Charleston and 1" north of Savannah and Hilton Head. Plenty of night life and music a sort drive away. Now we have hockey with the Savannah Ghost Pirates.
Love it!
I live in Bluffton sc
All of these reason are why I want to move to SC!!! Thank you for this video!
I currently live in UT but originally from a mild weather state, I think the Greenville area will be perfect for a 30 something libertarian like me :)
We would get along wonderfully lol
Tough subject covered adequately. We are in good agreement over all. Thanks for your input. 🌹🙂🙏🏼👵
Thank you for your feedback! Glad you enjoyed the video.
This is a great video!!! I am from the high desert of Oregon and I am planning to move to South Carolina. I am so so done with snow and I don’t want to ever have to deal with it again! I am also an extremely friendly person and wave to everyone I drive past. And not many people here in my town are very friendly!! ❤ my political views align with South Carolina as well! It’s taken us a few years to find the right state for us to move to and now we can’t wait to head to South Carolina! ❤
Eloquently stated, sir. South Carolina here we go!
I lived in South Carolina since I was nine years old and I love it South Carolina is my home
We’re glad you love our wonderful state! It truly is home!
I wouldn't say south Carolinians want "friendly" people, but they do want *outgoing* people. Southerners think "being friendly" means "no respecting boundaries", so they'll want to know everything about you, and expect you to be open about everything. This is a problem of you're not a traditional-christian-conservative.
So you're put in this situation where you're rejected by not opening up, but you'll also be rejected if you do open up and you don't fit the mold.
People at work trying to be up in your business, and then when you let your guard down, they say some bigoted shit. Makes me tense and anxious.
@@marinakesawa7470 Exactly! Which is why I just don't bother anymore. You can't win either way, so may as well save your energy for your actual friends.
that's what I was afraid of.
"It's not that we don't want Northerners in the South. We just don't want the North in the South."
There is some Northerns like my self agree with you. I want to move South because of your pro gun laws and freedom
The South has a lot to learn from the north. For one, good work ethic. People in the South seem lazy and sloppy.
@@emmahammond741 They are. Don't come.
🤣
@@emmahammond741 Atleast we arent fuckin communist
I live in Anderson SC and everything you said is true. I think the same thoughts apply to living in our Country. If you don't want to embrace our culture then don't move here.
I have a close friend living in
Beaufort SC. There is a possibility that I would go and live temporary at her house till I manage to settle down alone. What do you think about this town ? Any idea it they have good technical schools?
This is the United States, we embrace each others culture & traditions or we are not going to have a country anymore!
Do u want this to be the United Countries of America?
I'm not sure I understand your meaning. @@jgrysiak6566
The United States is literally a melting pot of culture. Unless the "southern states" are willing to succeed which they are not because the civil war didn't work out for the south. So the southern states need to keep in line with the federal government. Otherwise let's say you're a Democrat Yankee in the south, its not illegal but you probably won't be making friends.
I'm of the Marion , Dwight and Ravenel families. My ancestors and family. I live in Califmexifornistan...I like the best of both worlds! I love leaving Charleston on a hot 106 degree day and arriving in NorCal at 10pm with 55 degree weather...yeah, a dichotomy of life , beliefs and viewpoints. Be happy!
I'm from the New England region and I moved to Seneca, SC in 2012 and lived there until the end of 2015. I actually really enjoyed it there, lots of people use to say to me, you don't sound like you're from around here, or you sound like you're from Boston lol! However, I got along with people and didn't have issues with anyone. I kinda miss the Palmeto State sometimes, I can't believe its almost been 10 years since I was last down there, I remember being there like it was yesterday.
Born and raised in SC! Lol, I get told all the time I don’t have an accent.
Love Seneca. I’m normally over there a couple times a month!
@@livinginsouthcarolina Yeah, it didn't seem like you had a strong accent in the video. Also, what I noticed from living down there is, that some people have that strong southern accent stronger than others. The roommate I was living with during my time in Seneca, he didn't have that strong southern accent either, he sounded kinda like you and he's originally from North Charleston, SC. It seems like the people who live near the coast in SC like Charleston, Myrtle Beach, etc don't have that strong southern accent compared to other parts of the state. With that being said, I might be totally wrong but that's what it seemed like to me during my time down there lol!
@@rcyoung86 yes, depending on where one lives in the state he/she may not have an accent. There are also regional accents that are distinct to certain areas. I remember attending college upstate SC, and some girls would tease me about my accent… I was confused because we were in the south lol. They were from the upstate area. But one thing for sure is, accent or not, we love using our ma’am and sirs :)
Looking to move from Indiana with my wife, and SC has been on our list. Just curious: is there a major difference (except access to coast) between the Charleston metro and the Columbia metro? Assuming that answer is yes, but I still wanted to ask just to get some insights from locals :))
Pretty significant differences! Give us a call. We would love to discuss the areas with you. 864.702.2771
I just visited Columbia, SC planning to move next year still doing research
All sounds like a plus for me!
Loved this video. Every cons. about ST is what I'm looking lto raise my kids. Thank u
OMG! The state is mostly REPUBLICAN???!!! THATS all I need to hear!!! I'm headin' to South Carolina!!! WOO-HOOO!!!
I live in South Carolina and I have been seeing heat waves and, the high wind blows
excellent discussion.
You forgot high crime, poverty, some ridiculous taxes (car and boat property taxes) and oppressive heat during the summer
What’s is the taxes over there? Here in Miami we pay 7% in purchase buy and I’m paying almost 5,000.00 in house taxes a year and about 110$ per car insurance
I paid $650 per year on my truck in California, this year it costed me about 35 in SC lol
I paid about 30 a year in ny and in sc I pay about 500 on my truck

Thank you so much I love the country I’m a total introvert xoxo
Might be in the works, great video!
My comment is more general, but it's been my experience with SC (and other popular southern states) tend to attract certain categories of northerners. Not all northerners by any means. But for the most part they are what I might refer to as a domesticated lot, desiring domesticated living conditions and activities offered by a hot, sunny climate.
Anything wrong with that?
I'm not being mean when I say that I've noticed in my specific town 60% of the people who have moved here are old grumpy, rude,dickheads and 40% are actually nice people. Idk why we attract all the rude ones lol.
@@secondswell yeah I picture certain areas of SC to be like certain areas of Florida. Miserable people who thought that moving would solve all of your problems.
Anyone know hiway 78 landon sc is
No ice rink sounds good to me. Hospitality sounds wonderful. Enjoy the thought of the Upstate area.
Upstate is trash.
I am from Florida and now want to call SC home. I was doing research and ran into your videos. So what towns do you recommend?
North Augusta, Charleston and Greenville best options.
@@ferrousglobe4055, Columbia?

Your right about the dating scene.I haven't had a girlfriend since I moved to Greenville back in 1992.

I’m a Filipino and plans to relocate to SC (Columbia) with my family ‘coz I got a job offer there. But my no.1 concern is racism. Could you give me some insights on this. Thanks
Honestly, I am brown and despite what the media tried so hard to believe. I have never encountered any kind of racism since I moved here in 2017. I've lived in NJ, NY, FL and know friends in GA and visited many smaller cities and never witnessed any. Not saying not existing but it is at the personal level and you most likely not going to encounter it.
Racism ended in the late 1960s.
Hi, Im a Filipino and currently residing at Upatate NY. and thinking of moving to SC for our retirement. I would love to hear from you if once you moved to SC.
Im Filipino and Im been here for over 25 years. Racism is everywhere. No worse here than anywhere.
I can’t wait to visit! I’m from Washington state and have a best friend that moved to Columbia and he loves it there! I’m Republican and love southern hospitality I have been to Tennessee and loved the atmosphere! I think South Carolina and I are going to get along very well 👍😊
If you're from the North you might not want to move here, because racism will shock you.
I moved here and Love it !!!
Welcome to Magic City, Laura!!!
I'm from UK , I read about south Carolina after watching a film as a kid. Always had a thing about it. I also like the accent. Iv got a quiet consideration for coming over and have a look/see. I'm a tree surgeon by trade I'm wondering how job market is. I'd be happy to be a butler or run a pub tho if any positions open?
Pssst....Kupus.....butler? Sorry...we are really short on Downton Abbey setups.....
Man, his first point just scared me away. I need that city feel and culture.
I just graduated in my country if I ever get a chance to work abroad, I hope its here.
I'm very interested in South Carolina. I'm leaving prairieland forever real soon. Can't wait! Just tell me if there is a flooding problem here. Is it below sea level?
Charleston can have some flooding problems. But, that’s really the only place that deals with much of it.
If you’re inland, flooding is not a major issue in the state.
We're on our way to visit the Columbia area and I'm watching videos in the car about S.C. We're looking to relocate in September.

I lived in Simpsonville Sc from Indiana and there are a lot of dicks there. I’ve moved about 30 minutes away in a small town and they are so much nicer.
The Hot Heat and Humidity is the number one reason to not move here.
It would be super convenient if someone could invent something to keep us cool during summer 🥵🥵🥵
Yeah I moved here from super expensive central California where it gets to be 110 degrees and 10/10 UV index. I guess it depends on the person's previous situation haha 😄
I'm from in Asia country so I don't mind about the heat and humidity. I just love the beach and trees also the cost of living.
@@snoopylayla9652 Their are beaches up and down the coast. Prices here have sky rocketed.
@@bellie8009 everywhere is going up.
Moving to beautiful SC from a big city. Can't wait??!
Judging by what you went over, I'm quite compatible for the most part haha. However, I'm not American - I wanted to migrate to the US and am giving a special attention to more affordable states like SC, which's really appealed to me so far. How do people in SC feel about immigrants, in particular from Latin America (not too distant culture-wise)?
I grew up in SC, have since lived all over the US, and would never return to SC. Here is why:
1, Heat and humidity.
2. High crime
2. Horribly incompetent and corrupt legal community.
3. Few people take pride in the quality or even correctness of their work
4. Too many choose to not work and collect govt assistance.
5. Too many big hats with no cattle.
6. Poor schools.
I disagree with poor schools I go to public school in SC and honestly everyone there is nice and it’s a good education cause in my school most people have an average at least above C from everyone I know. and heat and humidity is honestly an opinion for not returning there some people like heat and humidity especially if you work outside a lot and I am one of those people who like heat and humidity and I don’t know you but from my knowledge I feel like you wouldn’t be that mad about the heat and humidity if you grew up there because your body would be adjusted to it and get used to it and not hate it but I don’t know you or where you lived in there but for me I am planning living my whole life in SC
U mean it’s not humid as hell everywhere else
@@chingshady2689 Uh, correct.
Agree w/ you, especially #3, contractors here are incompetent, irresponsible and unreliable. Solution? Luckily I know how to do everything but electric. But, had my floors replaced (were wood, got tile now) and it was a disaster.
I love the fact someone replied to your comment about the schools with a comment that was nearly illegible.
Is it safe ?
This is hot air. I will tell you the lagitamitly number one reason not to move here. South Carolina works HARD to make anyone who wasn't born here homeless. They take FULL advantage of people who move down here with absolutely no affordable housing, no transportation system, and no actual careers. You and your family AND friends will be working 3 jobs to live here, IN AN APARTMENT. Every hurricane season regardless of if one comes anywhere close to SC they will hike up prices on essentials for half a year and act like there were hurricanes happening that whole time. Everything around here is built for consumerism, Tourist's, and a one week trip. This place is NOT ment to start a family or business. In fact you will lose your family, your business AND your sanity trying to live here. The people are 2 faced as HELL. At least in a city if someone hates you, you know it and you can avoid them. Here they act like a bunch of elementary school children trying to dig dirt up on eachother and play social politics. All behind a big smile. You hear about THOSE types of neighborhoods, the ones that are all surface level. THAT'S all of South Carolina. You can't live anywhere around here without an HoA. They care more about appearance then substance. I have lived here for 13 years and OMG do I regret moving here. If you're rich and a HUGE snob, you will fit right in.
Now, now.....just calm down and we'uns will make you'uns a nice SWEET tea to slurp on!!
I was born in south Carolina, fort mill
And I lived here my entire life. Everything he says is true, though everyone I know hates to talk about politics and stuff like that.
And no, not everyone has a heavy southern accent
Don't be surprised if you see confederate flags in Myrtle Beach

All sounds good to me…I am hoping to move there ASAP
What kind of jobs can you find in SC.
Great!!!!! You just confirmed I will be welcomed there. Coming from NY be in Myrtle beach in March
Coming from Minnesota, I just wanna go where it's warm!
warm or blasting hot?
@@JillKirchner somewhere between frigid and blistering hot on Christmas Day 🎄
There are three kinds of northerners. 1) The vast majority who are products of their region, have roots and family, like it and stay put. 2)Those who move south because they prefer hot climates with the lifestyle and activities a southern region has to offer. This second group tends to be middle- upper middle class, economically mobile and migrate from metro regions with a higher-than-average cost of living. The bulk of them tend to be retirees. 3) This category includes both retirees and those who relocate due somewhat to circumstances. These transplants who might not be keen on moving south, come because of personal or employment circumstances. This includes a percentage of retirees who couldn't economically swing it and were compelled to move. Both of these sub- groups would've preferred to stay put in their region. It's this third category with the greatest concentration of malcontents.
You must also consider the higher crime, lack of car inspections, possible hurricanes (for the coastal part), and lack of road management in this state
Lack of car inspections? Sounds like a win to me!
@@jasonroberts9357 not when you see cars in the “highways” held together by duct tape and Crazy Glue.
@@jasonroberts9357 excuse me you will be painting a property car tax on your car so enjoy the no inspection process they make up for in the car property tax
@@sitdowndogbreath Not necessarily. Some states like TN, and OK. Don't do inspections or have property tax on cars. Freedom for the win!!
@@jasonroberts9357 Florida doesn't have an inspection however a state policeman can give you one right there on the spot if they want to usually only truck drivers go through this kind of shit Oklahoma I did not know that
Sounds like paradise!
All of the negatives that you mentioned are exactly why we moved here. Those that don't really fit in to our life style at this time will probably see the error of their ways when they grow up.
I also live in SC. I wonder if his angle was to repel the woke from considering moving here? He sounded quite conservative to me. Trump 2024!
We need progress, not more of the same. Check out the poverty and homelessness rates in SC sometime. We rank low in education and healthcare.
It's a GOP hellhole, and Lindsey Graham hands out the pitchforks.
Why did the “why you shouldn’t” list make me want to move there even more? Lol This sounded like a list of positives
Good video 👍🏽
Oh my God if these are the negatives this must be a great place to live.

Living in NC from age 8, I went to party with a friend from SC. The party was in SC. My friend went to go pick up another friend. The people I was left with almost jumped me. I had to take off walking alone down the road. They kicked me out. My friend saw me on the road, picked me up. I told him what happened. He went and got yet another friend, and shot gun, and we went back. When they saw who I was with they were instantly cool again.
People from SC hate people from NC. Their not as friendly as this guy makes out. I know.... I lived it personally. I still live here in NC at the border of SC. Bought a terrible lemon of a car from a small dealer in SC. 7 thousand dollar loss. ANd the roads in SC..... It's like going back in time. Best to own a suv or 4x4. The roads are horrible. Might even go from pavement, to dirt, and back to pavement again. I have followed gps to houses that took me down roads like that. Roads that beat the crap out of my poor little honda. Was wishing I had drove my truck.
Everything you said about South Carolina makes me want to move there so far I like Everything you have said, I was born northern but I was raised by Southerner my mom okalahoma my dad texas.
Immigrating from Canada to USA. Been looking into South Carolina or Florida. The process to immigrate has been soooo hard and expensive. My husband is American and my children are dual citizens. Now we have to choose a state to call home. It’s not as easy as it seems. In Canada we can move easily from one part of the country to the next. But there is so much red tape to move from Michigan to South Carolina. My views are heavily Republican/Conservative so this is why I’ve decided the south is calling and it’s time to say goodbye to liberal Canada. I want to raise my young family with people of like minds around me. It will just be a big disappointment if we can’t get to South Carolina but remain in democrat run Michigan after I join my husband in USA.
Think about Appalachia too. It's safer and still conservative.
Florida
I like this state ! :)
Lets see now. I'm unfriendly but my friendliness is somewhat measured. I cherish my four distictive seasons
I'm a young adult who was moved here recently, I haven't been fairing well here.
We're full I promise.

I don’t want to say that you’d never encounter some racism. However, it is not as common as certain media outlets make it seem. We have a very diverse state, that has a culture of inclusion and hospitality. The Charleston area, where Boeing is, is exceptional for all nationalities and walks of life!
@@livinginsouthcarolina Thank you so much for your honest reply. It is so helpful to hear this.

Violent crime has doubled in the last 10 years. The crime spreads town-to-town, so even if you move somewhere that is safe now, it will eventually become unsafe. SC residents won't mention this because they think crime is like this everywhere. It is not. 43 states are safer to live in.
None apply to me... On my way! 😅
I love South Carolina beautiful country side wouldn't trade it for nothing in the world
I live in Columbia coming from Atlanta metro. SC has many improvements with regards to traffic. If I need my big city vib, Charlotte isn't too far. Biggest problem is the airport in Cola.
How come Columbia does not have a large airport?
I have lived in Atlanta and Columbia vs Atlanta. Yes, I prefer Columbia.
I’m from South Carolina ? Beaufort to be exact? And we live in Ohio and many people as soon as they find out your from any part of the south for some reason they hate you? Many people here do anyways I can’t speak for all people in Ohio I just can’t understand what did to them I don’t remember doing anything because I’m 25 and I haven’t said or done anything to be rude to the people here.
I want to move there!
Wait I love here tho
Where I'm from there is poop all over the street and everyone thinks it's so normal we have an app for it. So uh, yeah this doesn't deter me at all bro. I'm getting the hell out of this city.
DC....Georgetown used to be so AWESOME!
Sc is hell on earth!❤
