I moved here from CT. last year and I'm very happy here. I got a great deal on a house, to get the same house in CT. it would have cost me at least 10x what I payed  More

Charleston has a lot going on for being a small city. Capitol Street has great restaurants and Taylor Books, and Capitol Market is one of the best year-round farmers  More
