Ruined

Unfortunately Beaufort county is full of transplanted northerners who do nothing but whine and cry about everything. They leave the north to come to the south and then complain about the area and talk how wonderful the north was. I've actually heard them saying this for all to hear numerous times. I have traveled extensively, the north, especially the northeast is horrible, that is why they are all moving south. They've ruined most of the natural beauty in Beaufort County, traffic is horrendous, housing costs have spiraled out of control. Gated communities are everywhere which limit beach access to most. Golf courses and manicured lawns are all over which pollute the natural environment with fertilizers that run off into once pristine saltwater rivers and marshes. Gullah and Geechee, African American cultural languages and traditions once common in the area have been erased and their land stolen. Many years ago this area was beautiful, but not anymore... Most of my family members who were native of Beaufort county dating back hundreds of years have moved away because of this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej07FuUZ2Zc
