Review of Greenville, South Carolina


Pretty on the outside, rotten on the inside.
Star Rating - 8/6/2019
If you're an introvert with no intention to make relationships during your stay 5/5

If you're of church going stock and the resolve to deal with every day drama 5/5

If you're someone with an open mind and looking for a forever home to drop some roots and make friends. . . No, just find someplace better. 1/5

I first moved here in 2008 as a high school student. Being a military brat I have met all shades of people from all walks of life. This has always been the most hostile environment I have ever lived. The only time people are genuine is when they're driving (which I wont even get into, it's just beyond frustrating). The folks that I have found to be true and kind around here are the people that aren't native to the area. To be fair some natives are perfectly considerate, at least the middle class folk are. If you're ever unfortunate enough to brush shoulder with the true high class blue bloods of the Upstate you'll know it. This place is festering with entitlement and God mongering. If my parents hadn't settle here and the alternative wasnt moving back to Louisiana I wouldn't be here. So I live on the outskirts as far as I can. When my daughter turns 18 I'll be long gone from this two-faced place.

Sounds to me like you might be the problem, not the natives..
