North Charleston is a separate city from Charleston. It often gets a bad rap for a number of reasons and is dismissed as the industrial ugly step sister to the beautiful Cinderella city of Charleston. Some of this is deserved, some not.
Overall, West Ashley offers a laid-back suburban feel with easy access to Charleston. It’s a solid choice for families or anyone looking for a more relaxed pace.
If you've sold your company for 10 figures, Sullivan's Island is the place for you. Sullivan's Island is most expensive zip code in South Carolina. Despite the wealth, there’s a laid-back ease about Sullivan for the lucky 2,500 or so who live on the island.
Johns Island still has a really laid back feel to it. You’ll see a gun store next to a brewery across the road from a hardware store. It’s that kind of place. A lot of the produce at the area farmers markets is grown on Johns Island or neighboring Wadmalaw Island.
James Island is one of the areas that still maintains a feel of how Charleston used to be before all of us newcomers ruined it. It’s not as planned and manicured as some others areas of town, but you’ll drive down the road and have Spanish moss hanging over your car as you drive.

I’ll make this easy. If it's in your price range, Mt Pleasant should be the top area you look at. Schools are A+ rated, they’re more like college campuses than schools. Whatever your lifestyle is, Mt Pleasant has it.
You expect to see Jim Carrey in his Truman Show walking down the street. It's that idyllic on Daniel Island. Impeccably manicured and planned out, those who live on Daniel Island rave about it. They love that their kids cycle to school and through all the park.
Moving to Charleston Should you move to Charleston? Believe all the hype. Charleston is a fabulous place to live. Conde Nest doesn’t hand out Best City in the US ten years running for nothing. Charleston is very laidback, people are here to enjoy life, not the rat race. Charleston
My favorite flip yet. Set on a lake in Mt Pleasant, the views of the lake were blocked by a massive wall with a fireplace !! I don’t know what the original architect was thinking but it was crazy to have the nicest lake in Mt Pleasant and not be able to see it.
Reason #10 FINANCIAL END OF YEAR = FIRE SALE Home builders get in fire sale mode around their end of their year because their bonuses depend on how many houses they've sold in that year. Another reason I to buy new construction homes.
I already know who will buy your Park Circle house down the road. I’ve seen in happen in Wagener Terrace already and Park Circle is the younger sibling of those places. It will be the typical Charleston Preppy Couple, who love the idea of living somewhere cos it’s not their parents’ neighborhood.
