what are the pros and cons for living in ashley vs mt pleasant? similar vibe for those in their 20/30's?
I love your videos ❤❤
I live here
All beaches in SC are raunchy. No white sands!
I had no idea about the earthquake bolts. I have lived in the area for 9 years and I have taken 2 tours and my youngest studied SC history last year. I knew all the facts except the last one. I really love Charleston despite the traffic. I feel so blessed to live here. I have been to the Dock Street Theater, the tea plantation, The Charleston Museum, and my oldest checked out The College of Charleston. We have taken a carriage ride. That’s something I would like to do again.
King Charles II founded the South Carolina Colony in 1663 by granting the land to eight noble men, known as the Lords Proprietors: Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon George, Duke of Albemarle William, Lord Craven John, Lord Berkeley Anthony, Lord Ashley Sir George Carteret Sir William Berkeley Sir John Colleton The colony was originally part of the Province of Carolina, which also included North Carolina. In 1729, North and South Carolina became separate royal colonies. The name "Carolina" comes from the Latin word for "Charles" (Carolus). The first permanent settlement in the region was established in 1670 on the west bank of the Ashley River at Albemarle Point. According to the Papal Decree 1496, The Pope owns Britain. According to you paying taxes, Britain says "1040a form Schedule A is voluntary tax to Britain's American Colonies" Britain owns America through taxation in Alluvial land rights...as long as no one researches, everyone will live in bondage in Heaven Creator gave us , meaning the Natives that were here before The Earl of Clarington naming the State Charles aka Clarinon.
Moving to goose creek for work. Would you recommend living in Charleston or West Ashley?
Great video. Thank you.
Not sure how I missed this one but you’re really adept at the video shooting/editing. Thanks again.
Foster Plaza
Move here it’s beautiful ❤
Can you make a video about nightlife (clubs, bars, lounges)?? ❤
Looks a great life in Charleston.
An inclusive playground??? SMH…
Thank you for posting such thoughtfully informative videos about moving to Charleston! I'm planning to move there later this year and your videos have been so helpful. Do you have any recommendations for safe walkable neighborhoods with a more quaint & cozy vibe? Preferably with bookshops & cafes? :)
Where was all this when we were growing up in No. Chas?
Don't forgot Bar on da Ave!👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿p.s. you can also access park circle from Spruil Avenue!!!
That was a great video, especially the earthquake bolts. We have them on our 1832 federal style home in southwestern PA. Also, we mostly don’t drink either, since we prefer our brain/liver cells intact. So, stay sober, you’ll remember much more of life’s good moments!
Thank you so much! That’s so interesting, I’ve never been to PA, but would love to go and see the history there!
@@thecharlestonlife you’re welcome. People think of southeastern PA as having all the history but the southwest actually has older history, I’m talking French & Indian War (Seven Years War), so more like between the founding of Charleston and the Revolution. If you’re ever making the trek let me know! I’ll give some pointers!
Charleston is such a old town going as far back as the 1700s. I had no idea it has the US's oldest museum and theatre, thank you for letting me know even more reasons to visit Makayla😍!
Thank you! And yes you should definitely check it out! It’s such a charming city!
Having lived in South Florida, we would come to Charleston and Savannah and not really notice humidity. What I always said was that you're not the only one sweating... Everybody is leaking!
Haha that’s a funny way to think about it! That’s definitely what it feels like some days 😂
A video suggestion for you, my dream is to live in an apartment or condominium that has a marina for boats and I searched to see if there are any videos about this in Charleston there are none if you do it it will be great
There’s a few in Downtown Charleston that are close to the city marina! 2 apartments that are are The Caroline and West Edge. Condos that are close to that also are the Bee Street Lofts!
You represent Charleston really good Charleston is my home. Thank you 😊
I appreciate that! I love Charleston so much haha thank you!!
so question. what town/area would you consider safe enough from flood zones, and mandatory evacuations but still not be hours from the coastal communities. my wife and i have visited Beaufort county a couple years in row now, and really love it, but the term low country can take on a new meaning with say, what is gonna happen there over the next few day with all the rain.
Downtown Charleston has more flooding than other parts of town, but areas like Mount Pleasant, West Ashley, parts of James Island and John’s Island, and Summerville are less likely to flood. But honestly, the storm coming through now is just not a normal occurrence. Usually hurricanes or tropical storms come through over the course of a day or 2. This storm is stalling over Charleston, which never happens, so I definitely wouldn’t use this event as a baseline!
Your so blessed to have grown up in Charleston Makayla❤!
Thank you! I love it so much!
Is this Park Circle area dog friendly with regard to parks and dining outdoors? Thank you for posting this informative video.
It is! There are outdoor sitting areas at the restaurants and lots of areas for dog walking!
@@thecharlestonlife I am adding it to my list! Thank you for responding.❤
The brand new playground is AMAZING AND SO COOL! Park Circle’s Park looks completely different from when I moved to the area from Philly 4 yrs ago.
Makayla tried emailing you but it was returned as not a good email address
I just recently switched brokerages, so that might be why. My email is makayla.west@cbrealty.com!
@@thecharlestonlife I did email that one and it returned back to me
Love Old Village, keep wishing they would somehow reconnect the footbridge to Sully’s Isle.
Me too! I think that would be so cool
Such a charming community, the footage you captured is so beautiful Makayla😍✨️!
It’s such a beautiful community! Thank you Harry!
You deserve an award for this!
Thank you so much!!
great suggestions!
Thank you so much!
Great job on the video! I am thinking of moving to Charleston and was wondering if there are long term rentals or just homes for sale on Sullivan's Island.
Thank you so much! And they have a very small amount of rentals on the actual island, but you can find some that may not be on the island, but are still close. I’d be happy to help you out! Feel free to email me at makayla.west@cbrealty.com
Charlestone is stunning, I can see why you love it so much Makayla😍🌴. Hope you had a happy July 4th🇺🇲!
Thank you! It definitely has a charm!
awesome explanation, can you do a video on the best places to live for singles? (20-30's) Not necessarily for dating, but just to meet people, build connections and friendships. Born and raised in NY and planning on relocating to Charleston in 2025. Leaving all my friends so meeting people from the jump is crucial for me... Orrr maybeee a pro's and cons list of the various options you went over. Assuming there's trade offs for each location.
So pretty
My 22 year old daughter is relocating to Charleston for a nursing position. She wants to be in a young area of course. Daniel’s Island is beautiful but is it’s good choice for her? Other young areas you would recommend? She is working in Summerville but would prefer living around halfway between there and downtown Charleston
Daniel Island is an amazing choice and is about a 30 minute drive from Summerville. Also Mount Pleasant is an awesome option!
This is my home. 😊
Charleston (named Charles Town after the British King) is an AMAZING historic city. South Carolina is a wonderful state and Charleston is one of, if not the best city in America.
This village is so beautiful as are you Makayla😍✨️!
Aw thank you!!
We live about 2 hours north of Chucktown, there about 2 times a month and stay at The Charleston Place. Our go too's are. SNOB, Halls Chop House, Husk, High Cotton, Fig and Poogans Porch for brunch. Palmetto Grill on site at hotel. also decent Also love the Tattooed Moose in Mt Pleasant thanks for the vid and suggestions
Ooo yes!! Love all of those! So many amazing food options 😆
Great content
Thank you!!
Millionaires Island !
Born and raised in Michigan, I'm gonna be moving to Charleston in a couple of weeks. Thanks for the informative video
Charleston is my home you will love it
If you can afford to move into an extremely cost inflated house and send your kids to a private school you will be okay as long as you don’t have to go anywhere.
that they brought the settlers to shore safely is not crazy. that the settlers destroyed the natives culture, health, and land is the crazy part......
We’d love to move to Charleston or surroundings if you could help with rental prices it would help a lot.
Love Charleston. I was there for the Spoletto on my 21st birthday. I would live there but like Miami its flooding.
Great overview! Thanks
Thanks
Absolutely any further questions don’t hesitate to ask!
I want to move to SC ...i lived there for one summer. The best place , and i feel like itls growinfg rapidly
That’s an understatement
be heading down there again this memorial day. hopefully it doesnt rain the entire time like it did last memorial day.
