South Carolina, particularly the Columbia area, is a great place to live. I have lived here pretty much all my live and I love it. Columbia is a great place to raise a family. It offers a ton of activities to do, such as outdoors activities, cultural, and the like.
Here are some reasons that make SC a great place to live:
1- Weather - Average temperature is 65 to 75 Degrees, we have four season and usually no snow!
2- Cost of Living is low
3- No Hurricanes (very seldom)
4- Abundance of land
5- Low taxes/insurance
6- Location...Columbia is close to everything. It's about 2 hours from Charleston ant the beach and 2-3 hours from the mountains.
7- Hospitality...nothing better than Southern Hospitality
8- Columbia area is a metro area, big city feel, with small town charm!
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.
Thanks and a have a great day. |

There's a lot of things to factor in. Where are their jobs and a lower cost of living or just a lower cost of living? Do you mind snow? A lot of higher altitude places have a lower cost of living. Usually a good bet is to move about 100-200 miles from a big city in the midwest. For example, Denver or Minneapolis. But judging from your picture you're black, so you might want to keep in mind that Minnesota is about 95% white... |

Okay, compared to Va. a lot of places are cheaper. I just moved to Greenville South Carolina from Va Beach Va. And you have to remember the trick to moving to a place where homes are cheaper is jobs pay less.
A good example is In Va Beach we lived in a townhome off of Lynnhaven Pkwy. 2bdr 1.5 ba and our rent was aprox 940 a month. Here we found a 3 bdr 2 ba for 665 a month. We where like wow great deal. But other people are paying 450 for a 4 bdr 2 ba trailer on land.
And a job I was doing in Va paid 28,000 a year. Here the same job paid 25,000 a year.
But South Carolina is nice. Weather like Va. Charleston is just plan beautiful that is all on the coast. Greenville area I recommend Travelers Rest, It is a lot of mountains |

I left NY over 20 years ago and moved to Atlanta area. It was the best decision I ever made. It is affordable, a temperate climate, great job opportunities, fun sports and entertainment options, nice people, etc. The traffic situation is a negative, so the solution is to live within a 10 mile radius of where you live. Find job first...housing 2nd...Good Luck! |

I moved from Florida earlier this yeat to Atlanta, GA. I definitely recommend this city for families and singles. If you are a family, look into the housing areas surrounding Atlanta, especially Gwinnett County. I live about 30 min away from the downtown area and have a huge house with lots of land for a very affordable price. If single, there are plenty of places to live and play near the downtown area. The prices are affordable, the climate is wonderful and the people are very nice. |

Texas is relatively low cost. So are a number of midwestern states. |

Go to Forbes.com. They do surveys of cities from the richest to the poorest. The most affordable to the most expensive. I love the site!
I live in Cincinnati. Last I read the cost of living is low. The crime is a little high towards the downtown. Not sure of the taxes vs other states. |

Not New York, that's for sure. I heard that there are nice reasonable areas in North Carolina. |

I live in Rock Hill, SC. 30 minutes south of charlotte. 4 hours from Altanta, GA. 1 hour from Columbia, SC. Right here in this area cost of living has risen over the last few years. But like one of the previous people said. Greenville area is very reasonable. You can get decent places here in Rock Hill to rent and buy pretty cheap. The schools are great. And there is still some country here. You can buy a 3br 2ba home here between 75000 and 100K compared to what you would pay for the same home out in Cali. |
