Charleston, SC: A Great Place To Live

Charleston is the heart of coastal Carolina living. This historic city has maintained its timeless charm while blending with today’s lifestyle needs. The strong local economy attracts people of all ages, but it’s Charleston’s distinctive character that makes them stay.

European charm, historic sites, premiere beaches, and a diverse array of amenities contribute to the appeal. You can walk down cobblestone streets with 19th century storefronts, shop the farmers markets, and go crabbing in the marshes. You can also experience culinary excellence, browse our legendary shopping, and take in a performance at the famous Dock Street Theatre.
