Best Places To Live In The US? South Carolina City Among The Best
We all know that living in South Carolina is wonderful. The Palmetto State has something for everything and we often talk about how incredible the city of Charleston is. But that’s not all the state has to offer. Scholaroo created a detailed guide on the best US cities to live. The report compared 150 cities across 47 metrics distributed in 9 key relevant categories: Crime & Safety, Affordability, Economy, Quality of life, Leisure and entertainment, Healthcare, Education, Employment, and Infrastructure. And in the best 150 cities to live there were four South Carolina cities. Of course, Charleston was the highest-ranked South Carolina city, but another trendy SC spot wasn’t far behind them on the list. Both of these cities were ranked in the top 20.
Additionally moving a little North, North Carolina also had four cities make this list. If I had to pick four cities to be included from SC, these would be those four. But if I were to do the same for NC, the cities included are not what I would expect. Only one of Charlotte and Raleigh was included.
Read Scholaroo’s full rankings and analysis here and keep reading to see the South Carolina cities named the best places to live, as well as the NC cities, and the top 10 nationwide.
