Tired of the Maryland BS. I have a suggestion more to Greenville S.C. It is a wonderful area and it has a great DT and even has a new Cabelas. Also rents and home prices are very low.Check it out!

Move to SC but not to Greenville. SC has the same rate of crime per square mile as the national median (39) but Greenville is 129/sq mi. That's 3.3 times the state rate.
