In 1992 when we first came ot Beaufort we oculd walk the streets day and night and even late into th enight and we always felt safe.
Now? We wouldn't feel safe if General Patton was surrounding us.
Local authorities and politcos have left the crime get out of hand because, in our opinion, they just want to try "dialogue" and be those good old namby pambyes so as not to offend anyone.
And it is easier to put up someone going 2 MPH over the speed limit than to go after a gang group at might or a sex offender or a druggie or a wife beater or a child molestor.
Plus they have all the out of town tourist money to take in their little speed traps and parking violations.
To hell with the locals, just play it safe for themselves.
A lot of movies use to be filmed in and around Beaufort "Forrest Gump" "The Great Santini" etc.
Now we're not sure when the last major film gorup came here.
orth Carolina's governor is taking the good stuff and we lose over & over
Thus said, if you're thinking about moving here to live, retire or start a business know the following:
The crime rates, Violent and Property are NOW HIGHER THAN DETROIT & NORTH CHARLESTON.
Check it for yourself on Sperling's Best Places and if you call the PD and ask why , you get a run around and denials even though the stats are showing it...then they'll hang up as we have experienced..not always but usually.
Well it's your choice.
We are leaving for safer grounds, say some place like Iraq
