Review of Greenville, South Carolina


I like it
Star Rating - 1/23/2020
I moved here in 1994 from Barre Vermont and i love it. The mountains are about 45 minutes North West. The beach is a good 5 hour drive away. There are a lot of parks and hiking. Downtown always has free activities. There are smaller towns within Greenville too. They always movies outside or little fairs and festivals. Coffee shops and ice cream palors.

The city area is more welcoming to mixed race couples then most anywhere in the state but its not really anyone here but White people, Black people and South America people. Not diverse in cultures other than that as far as i know. Maybe Greeks too

Greenville does like its Churches. Lots of Jesus here but thats great because we are Christians. We prefer to go to a Mega Church so no one is ever in our business much. Its large and i doubt anyone but God knows we are there.

Ive always liked the schools. We have a 22 year old, 21 and 10. Great options like magnet schools so you can pretty much pick your kids school even if your not in that school zone

We live in Piedmont which is hopegully the next small town to be revamped. The planning phase is long. In the mean time its a little junkie but our huge house was 60k and our neighbors are great.
