Where in the HECK is Beaufort, South Carolina??

- Here's a crazy place that you've never heard of before.
For this episode, I headed to Beaufort, South Carolina, population 13,404. It’s always called one of the best places in South Carolina. It’s a big tourist town, but that doesn’t mean you can’t live here.
I went through downtown Beaufort, checked out some of the nicest parts of town, and drove through some regular neighborhoods. Then I talked to someone who has lived here for a long time and got his perspective on what it’s like here.
Where is Beaufort? It’s on the South Carolina coast, about halfway between the very southern cities of Charleston and Savannah, Georgia. This whole coastline here is one big tourist stop. Just about all of Beaufort sits on a series of islands surrounded by low lying marshland. Even though it’s right on the coast, there’s not really a traditional sandy beach nearby. But it really is pretty.
It's the perfect Tiny Town 2.0

What she said at 22:40 was irresponsible and incorrect: the availability of hospitals and specialist doctors f***ing sucks in Beaufort. My wife and I are here for the military and she has been shuffled from one “doctor” to the next for the past 2 years for various issues that she has and there’s almost nothing to show for it. We have MULTIPLE friends who’ve experienced similar issues when they’ve sought treatment for various conditions.
MOST DOCTORS IN BEAUFORT ARE HACKS. I don’t know if so many of them view all of their patients with cold indifference, but it sure seems like so many use service members in the military and their dependents as cash-cows. My wife and several of our friends have EACH had MULTIPLE useless doctors who only care about suckling at the warm teat of Tricare (health insurance).
They know you have few options in this one-horse town so don’t have to actually care: they can just collect money from your insurance provider and then shrug, and there’s basically no recourse in this country if a doctor sucks a$$ but didn’t hurt you through negligence etc.
My husband was stationed at Beaufort sc in 1968to 1971. At the marine base . I married him and moved their in 1969. That was fifty years ago…we lived off base at sea island apts off Renault rd. I loved loved your video…it brought back many happy memories..as i lost him 7 years ago…
So sorry for the loss of your husband! 😢
@Jessie Hooks: So sorry for the loss of your husband. Like you, my husband is also gone and I don’t expect to see Beaufort, SC again since I don’t travel anymore, unfortunately. Years ago, on our return back home to Canada, my husband and I decided to ‘check it out’ after vacationing at HHI. We instantly fell in love with its many charms and beautiful location and promised we would re-visit it our next time in the Low-country. The following year, we did just that so I have many memories of your lovely home town!
Beaufort does have beaches. We have the famous Hunting Island beach with a light house
My wife and I moved to Beaufort in 2005 and built a new home in the Seabrook area (46 Seabrook Point Drive). Hate to say it, but after three years I had no friends at all. The military people were in and then out which is understandable. Many others had moved there ( I assume ) from northern states, and there was the crowd whose families had been there for 300 years. If your family had not been there for at least 100 years you were an outsider. I am not saying all those people were unfriendly, but we always felt completely ignored. After three years of this we moved to Camden South Carolina on Lake Wateree and have plenty of friends. Beaufort is a nice place to visit.
I agree with you. After 15 years two hurricanes got my property and I moved back to the outskirts of Savannah.
Has anyone ever read "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil"? While the majority of the book is set in Savannah, the Garden of Good and Evil was located in Beaufort.
Ever look for the light at Lands End Road?
@@Tlrhighside209 I've never actually been to Beaufort or Savannah before.
@504Ever Well, add them to your bucket list!
They are two of the most haunted places in the States.
Amazing Food, Culture, and History.
I loooooove that book! Only been to Savannah but sounds like I should check out Beaufort.
@@daisukishikamaru4920 You won't regret it!
Beaufort is beautiful!
I lived on Lady's Island for 2 years, and I loved it. I went to Beaufort all the time. Hunting Island state park was one of my favorite places to go. My son was an instructor on the rifle range at Paris Island. That gave me access to the base for shopping. My favorite thing was driving through the country looking for old cemeteries. Wonderful place to live.
I was stationed in Beaufort from 2003 - 2006 and loved the small town feel so much that I purchased a home. I retired in 2019 and decided to move back. I love my neighborhood and the city.
The Beaufort lady was amazingly articulate and full of information! : )
I am a Beaufort native and I will go ahead and clarify that with the amount of housing developments going on, and commercial developments for shopping centers the charm is running out fast. Its a tourist trap and nothing more. Rent for a typical 600-700 square foot apartment is starting at 13-1400$, the vast majority of jobs here are service related and do not pay well, there are zero entry level jobs that pay well enough to live independently as a single person. Homes such as what I live in are currently selling anywhere between 330k-400k… homes in the downtown area of less square footage as mine are selling for much of the same. It is the typical coastal community in that it if becoming a retirement home and gentrified. There is a housing shortage here and a worker shortage. Lastly the town of beaufort may be 12k but it is surrounded by development. The county itself is 189,700 people. Id say its better than living in a city such as Charleston but without a degree or the stomach to work a few jobs or have multiple roommates good luck. Average hourly wage in Beaufort is roughly 16$ an hour. Theres also plenty of crime, north of the broad river (beaufort) is known for violent crime statistics as per the sheriffs office. In the last few years there has been far too many shootings and murders. The only local beach is hunting island state park and it is a pay to enter and during the summer will be closed at max capacity normally by 10/11 am. With the huge influx of retirees and military I wouldn’t expect rent to become cheaper anytime soon… as a young person living here its hard to get a leg up. Feels damn near impossible unless youve had college and other debts paid for… so bring plenty money either your own or your families. Beaufort is beautiful and i love it here, genuinely, it just isnt as charmed as it is made out to be. Its more working class friendly than a big city but it is still pretty limited.
I’ve lived here all my life 58 years and I would’ve never thought when I was young I would’ve wanted to live anywhere else but the Way it has grown so fast and I was born and raised in Port Royal and it’s just changed way too much I’d give anything to go back the way it was 40 years ago
Beaufort was a great small town. It has been ruined with the influx of norther retirees. we once had pristine roads and waterways. We now have traffic chocked roads, waterways full of boats and higher taxes. For a local it is heart braking to see what has happen to once a nice small town.
Yes Howard I Feel Your Pain!!!!
I've grown up in Bluffton and I'm still close by. One thing the influx of retirees has done is increase not only property value but also rent in apartments for locals such as myself. Housing market here is broken now, but that's business I guess.
Lived in Beaufort as a child. Always wanted to retire there; unfortunately it is not the town I would retire to now.
I’m coming to and voting democrat.
I empathize I'm moving South from our small Northern AZ town for the locals. Inside I laugh who is going to collect their trash,deliver thier packages and groceries, and wait on them in restaurants when they've priced them all out?
I have been to Beaufort several times and love the downtown area. I was surprised that you did not mention that Marine base Paris Island has a huge impact on this area and like most military towns not everything that comes along with a military population is good.
I’d say Fort Jackson in Columbia is an exception. FJ is a great asset to the capital city.
I lived in Beaufort off and on throughout the 1980s and 1990s. When I (born 1975, now 46) was growing up my family ping-ponged between CT, FL, and SC. My youngest brother and three nieces still live in Port Royal which is just south of the Beaufort town limit.
Please come visit our beautiful town and then go back to your beautiful towns traffic's already bad enough LOL
I did mention it specifically Parris Island and The MCAS.
Thank you for pronouncing it properly. So many people think it's "Boh-fort" but that's the North Carolina one, not ours in SC.
He respected your town by pronouncing it that way but "beau" is a French word that is pronounced "boh" which means beautiful. The town name, Beaufort, means Beautiful Fort in French.
I remember one of my Drill Instructors rubbing it in that he was going home to Beaufort to eat turkey for thanksgiving while we were stuck sitting on our footlockers dreaming of home. It made me hate Beaufort lol.
You just didn't have the right Beaufort experience
I say go there this Thanksgiving and have turkey and seafood until your DI is jealous. 😆
Beaufort is my hometown. I grew up here! It's not much but it's beautiful and there is alot of good stuff here and the people are generally nice!
The most enjoyable week of my life was spent downtown, the storefronts turned into bars at night opening on to the waterfront..it was so magical.
Sounds so peaceful
BEAUTIFUL PLACE!! I have the pleasure of being engaged to someone from Beaufort!! The food he cooks is AMAZING!!! That’s another story too long to type here!💜💜💜
Great job Nick! ❤️Floating Assisted Living! Love your comments. Thank you!
Nick Johnson Beaufort does have a beach near by. It’s called Hunting Island. You should check it out.
I have lived here for 34 years now. It use to be a very quiet town back then. Still love my town. I live at the end of MCAS , Marine Corps Air Station, Runway 5. The Jet fly over my house every day. Pilot Myself and enjoy the daily Airshow..
I was an air traffic controller there 09-15!
Fascinating place. Quite a change from all of the sad places you usually cover.
Great job Nick!
you should have gone to Hunting Island Beach, where they filmed the Vietnam scenes in a small indie film called Forrest Gump
Pedo Hanks famous film.
Downtown Beaufort to the ocean is about an 18 mile 24 minute drive. Most people in Beaufort go to hunting Island Park which is on the ocean when they want to go to the beach. Hunting Island is basically a jungle with some parking spots for the beach. It's busy, but there's no shops or restaurants like most busy beaches. U pack what u want/need. There's a pretty /romantic lighthouse there too. Keep driving past and then you land on Fripp Island. $$$$ and exclusive
Title: Here's Beaufort, South Carolina. One of the best small towns in the South.
That's a coded message from the City Feller Command Center: "ATTENTION!! We have identified somewhere that does not suck! Please rectify the situation immediately!"
Next thing you know, you'll have the people moving in who assure you, "We're the last reasonable people left in CA / NY / Chicago etc. You can close the gate behind us." Funny, the last bunch said the same thing.
Then these transplants will start saying, "Oh, you think rent is expensive here? This is nothing! Why, Back Home" (it's always "Back Home") "we thought nothing of paying 3.5 zillion $$$ per month!" This is the first wave who are there to soften you up, and get you used to the idea that the cost of living should be much higher.
Then they start trying to turn the place into what they left. Why do you think they put a Whole Foods and Trader Joes in Chattanooga? "We need a Whole Foods and Trader Joes here!" -- Said No Redneck Ever.
Why did they try to legalize the rolling stop in Austin? Californians!
Lol, you are being so dramatic, for one. Two, this is the situation EVERYWHERE and it isn't just Californians. You realize its the people who're already in your county taking advantage of the transplant situation and not the transplants themselves, right? Everyone deserves to have a home they love and feel safe in. Step off it.
Also, the only reason Californians say that is because y'all act absolutely loony whenever people say that's where they're from, so they feel like they have to placate the foaming masses of people too thick to see that this is a different world we all live in. We all want to thrive. Not survive.
@@DeaDiabola exactly the kind of response I'd expect from a transplant
@@DeaDiabola The issue is transplants moving onto the wonderful new place and then quickly ruining it by trying to turn into the place they just escaped from. If you have the desire to change a place change the one you originated from. The fact is the new guy who moves to the fashionably great place is almost always screwing up that last guys perfect paradise. But still, don't tell us how you just had to live here and then not listen to those who have been maintaining and caring for that place for generations.
@@dbv2401 I mean, I agree with that for sure. I just don't think its strictly a transplant issue. It's a lot of things, unfortunately. I've traveled a lot, and its definitely not just one thing; times overall have changed, attitudes have changed (some for the better, some for the worse) but overall, the exchange of power has changed. It belongs to the corporations. Not the people.
I spent my last year in the Marine Corp in Beaufort. It wasn't so pretty. That was 1978, however the people were nice. No one talks about the sand fleas the mosquitos, the chiggers ticks and snakes. In the summer the humidity was 103 percent???? However when I went back in 2000 they had totally redone the town and highlighted the historical aspects of it. It was completely different.
Yes , the schools are good .My nephews wives teach there . People have also seen ghosts of Union soldiers walking through hotels looking for things to steal ! My friend ; Ginette , actually could describe him ! That blue uniform ! !
I visited Beaufort about 30 years ago and loved it. My neighbor owns a condo on an island nearby. I would love to go back again.
True, Mallory Beach did die in the water there, (Archers Creek) but all the rest of it was quite a ways away..
Hampton county..
The kid who was driving the boat drunk was killed by his own father who was sentenced to life in prison today.
Great Job Sir! Thanks
I’m a local I’ve lived here for 50 years .. one thing that you didn’t get right are the beaches we have 3 as a matter of fact. Several secret rivers the locals ONLY know 👀‼️ best town ever ‼️packed with awesome people… so historical and haunted ‼️as a matter of fact I live in a community with a beach 🏖 also a big golf cart community ‼️of course it doesn’t bother me if no one wants to move to Beaufort
It is a lovely place. My wife and I got married at the Old Sheldon Church ruins just up the road from Beaufort SC. Beaufort reminds me of Mt. Pleasant SC from the 1970's and 80's
Come visit spend your money and go home we don't want to be Mount Pleasant
@@jasonvuolo2780 kind of rude, but no, you don’t want to be the Mt Pleasant of today.
I'm a resident of Beaufort and I live on lady's island. This town is beautiful and old. I believe that Beaufort is the oldest town along the coast. Other than the rising crime rates this town just keeps growing and growing. I just wish this town had more entertainment like movie theaters, bowling alleys, things like that. Did you know that the bridge leading to waterfront park is one of very few rotating bridges?
It's actually the 2nd oldest city in the South
It’s not growing with young people it’s mostly old people
And then you have the military people who always come but go
dont forget the looking glass bar or the sands bait shop god times
@@elisakadel8201it’s also the suspected site of the first European settlement. Even older than Jamestown!
My son was born in Beaufort 30 years ago. My husband was stationed there. We loved it
Lived there, moved away for a couple years, and now I am moving back. It's a gorgeous area with the best people. Lowcountry living is the best kind of living!
One of the most historic and beautiful places in the country.
As far as haunted history, I'm sure there is a fair share in Beaufort but possibly more in Charleston. Charleston is sitting on top of lots of potter's field and pirates weren't necessarily buried, that would have required respect for the dead...
Thank you SOOOO VERY much for all of the information and especially the amazing driving around the area! You have helped me sooo much!! 🙂
Very nice place! Thanks Nick for your very good reporting!
I love the information you provide and your personality is the icing on the cake. I enjoy watching your videos, you make me smile and laugh.
Same!
Floating assisted-living. love it Nick.
Originally UK born, now live west of Toronto and Beaufort, SC is one of my favorite spots in the south-east area of USA. I so enjoyed you taking me around town again, Nick, and I didn’t even have to pack a bag! It is often referred to as “mini-Charleston” with its beautiful live oak trees draped in Spanish moss and the many graceful old homes.
It’s been more than a few years since I was last there, but I loved visiting the many art galleries. I never tell anyone about Beaufort (lol!) as I want it to remain a well-kept secret but a few years ago in a large book store, I happened to see the latest issue of Southern Living magazine ran an article on this lovely town. I just hope it stays its current perfect size and retains its many Low-country charms … it’s a real gem. 🇨🇦
Such a BEAUTIFUL town!!! 😍
Nick, I must say, you are very good at your job, you tell a story the way you explain the area you are at and you know exactly what I knew living in Santa Barbara for a couple of years you are point on. That is why I enjoy your videos, I know there must be a lot of preparation that goes into your UA-cam. Thank you so much for sharing. I like traveling, however, when I do travel, we cannot hit all of these places you take us to. So again, thank you. 😊
There is another Beaufort in North Carolina which was ranked as"America's Coolest Small Town" by Budget Travel Magazine is also located on the coast.Both have a charming,historical vibe to them!
I agree especially if you’re into pirates
Pronounciation for NC Beaufort is different!
Beaufort in NC is pronounced 'BO FORT' Beaufort in SC pronounced 'BEW FORT'
@@drsysop
You are so correct!
lived in SOUTH CAROLINA all my life 88yrs so far except 3 years over seas been around the world about 4 time (in service) no place like home lived from the beech to the mtns on the lakes (co transfers ) love it
My brother-in-law is station in Beaufort South Carolina, I visited Beaufort for the 1st time in September of 2023, spent a week there visiting with my sister, brother-in-law and niece, I loved it, my opinion is its a very beautiful place, I loved it, haven't stop thinking of Beaufort since, planning to visit again, I wouldn't mind living in Beaufort,
Beaufort south Carolina looks nice a good place to visit and even live the downtown looks pretty and clean. I've heard of Beaufort.
It's really pretty, but from my own experience, tourist towns tend to get really expensive and have lots of traffic.
I lived on Hilton Head for three years and quite a few of my co-workers and friends that I made lived in Beaufort. Their rent was barely any cheaper than what I was paying on Hilton Head plus an hour commute both ways to work when it's tourist season which doesn't die down completely until around Thanksgiving. I moved at the beginning of the pandemic so I'm not completely sure how badly rent was influenced through that.
@@brandonpaul3985 Beaufort restaurants & groceries are just as high as NY (LI at least) Home prices & rents here have skyrocketed since the pandemic. They've gotten much worse in NY though as well so cost of living overall is still cheaper here. Plus the other benefits of moving South so I'm happy to be making the move. But I don't like all the development I'm seeing here. The plan was to get away from suburban sprawl! And the traffic crowds & high taxes that come with it!!🤦I'm praying it doesn't get too much worse or I'll be looking for a new place in a few years. 🙄
@@tygalily510 At the rate it was going in the years I lived there, I bet the Hardeeville Okatie area will look just like Bluffton 5 years from now.
@@brandonpaul3985 ugh🤦
BA HA HA I FREAKiN LOST it at the "assisted living facility" ! OMG Nick! I was eating dammit! Lol
They do have assisted living cruisers!
Into 20 seconds and I'm laughing all ready....go head Nick! 🤣
A lot of "half-backs" live in coastal SC (people who first moved to Florida and decided it was not their cup of tea, preferred a mild winter, and a lot more trees). Don't discount the influence of Hilton Head (close by) on the community as a yankee retirement area. Also, the Paris Island Marine Training Center has a significant influence in bringing back people who familiarized themselves with the area in their younger life in the Marine Corp.
I watch youtube videos of different cities while I drink my coffee most mornings and this was DEF the funniest one I’ve seen!
Michael J. Fox actually put Beaufort on the map for me back in the day, and the internet has devastated many small romantic communities across the nation by allowing real-estate agencies to elevate their prices via comparison and attract more visitors
Born and raised in Beaufort SC until my house burnt down a few years back. Gosh I miss it bad! Seeing this video ? Really REALLY takes me back home!
We have been taking week-long beach vacations on Fripp Island for the past 5 years. We love Beaufort County! If I felt like I wanted to stay in SC around the time I retired, I would definitely consider Beaufort. Much much better than most of Greater Columbia! Also I think the primary reason it’s still so charming is because of how far away it is from I-95. That highway ruins everything it touches!
Enjoying these episodes. Can't wait to get my Mappy Did You Know TShirf. Looks very nice there.
Thank you--just enjoy your posts and the funny side of things---We live in the woods of North Georgia (Ellijay,Ga.) !!! Keep up the good job!!!
I love Beaufort 💘 Been there many times, a charming southern town.
This is where Joe Frazier the former heavyweight champion comes from and thus my favorite place regardless if I haven't been there !
I am one minute and 32 seconds under this video and as a local of Beaufort I have to stop you right there this place is not affordable rich people have moved in here and basically destroyed this place. And now they’re turning on each other as expected.
Good! Hopefully they will eat their young! I cannot stand the “wealthy people”
If your broke…get out
Not that you would actually tell me who you actually are but come kick us out. Tough guy.😂 you are very cute hiding behind your keyboard.
We visited there in October on a bus trip loved the city keep up your Great videos I have many of your videos
Beautiful Town
Love. Love. Love. Beaufort, SC❤️
I know you do
Love Beaufort. Been there many many times. 💚
I love Beaufort . My parents and sister, lived there , My nephews live there now . One nephew is in the Police Department . I always feel comfortable when I make my annual trip there at Christmas . The shopping is wonderful . The people are kind and polite. Please visit !
I just got back from Beaufort last week. It is so beautiful. The weather in May is much better than Michigan!
I really find your videos helpful as I search for my next location.
Great video!
Perfect timing, been wondering about Beaufort
I lived in a rural area when I was a child then moved up North it was a big difference.
They tried the free loaner bikes in Fresno in the 80's. Lasted about 2 wks. This place is very pretty , and very Southern looking! Lush foliage and must be humid!
What a cute little town!
Another Gem Nick
Seems an amazing place to visit 🙂
Great video. I love your sense of humor and Wendy has great knowledge of our town!! You guys rock!! I'll be sure to check out more of your videos!
Thank you for this, Nick. I visited Charleston for a conference man yrs ago. This seems like a place to escape the terrible DC winters plus everything else that's terrible in DC, which is everything but the Horseshoe Bar at the Willard Hotel. This is WKBW, Buffalo.
"Looks like a floating assisted living facility." 😂Love the review and the commentary. We will definitely visit once we have completed our move to the Greenville area. Yes, the SC income taxes are killer. Low property taxes but more than made up for by the high income taxes. I'll be going from no state income taxes in WA to 7% in SC. However, the total cost of living is lower, and you never know when Washington State will add on another tax. Personally, I think they should ease up on the income taxes for lower income folk. I don't mind paying that level of tax, but the tax rate of 3% for a $3,000 income going up to 7% for $15,000 is nuts. That means a hard working poor person earning $15,000 pays the same percentage as a person earning millions. Not very fair. For folks nearing retirement, like us, it's not bad as the tax on retirement income is less. SC allows a tax deduction on income from a retirement account and does not tax Social Security benefits, so the actual taxes are closer to 2%. A tax table like that keeps poor people poor, disincentivizes working and is very lopsided. Keep up the great work Nick.
My wife and I are both retired. Most retirement income is non-taxable. We haven't had to pay state income tax in the last 15 yrs. Combine that with low property taxes, and you have one of the best retirement secrets in the country.
That state tax table was probably instituted 60 years ago when those amounts were more substantial and they just never updated it.
Did a Parris Island Marine tour and Land Trust tour including Auldbrass, FLlW low country plantation house.
The entire thing was quite wonderful. 30 years ago and still recall the beauty.
I was born in Beaufort but never lived there. Back in the early 80's we lived on Hilton Head Island and the nearest hospital with a maternity ward was in Beauford.
You forgot to mention the Marine Corp museum on Paris Island. A must see! Also Fort Fremont.
Your videos are awesome man
I live on Lady’s Island. This place is not much of a secret anymore. Thanks for making this video and visiting our area bro.
Mappy Great job and Nick Love 💘 ❤ 👏 ♥ 💕 💙
Beaufort was home to the great writer Pat Conroy. His novels rhapsodize about the beauty of Beaufort its people and the surrounding islands. The Prince of Tides is a great book to start. It was made into a movie starring Nick Nolte and Barbra Streisand!
I saw that movie!
He was a friend of my grandparents and a neighbor of theirs on Fripp.
@@NickJohnson the book's even better!
@@NickJohnson Did you eat any 🐸 Frog 🦵🦵🦵🦵legs??
"The Great Santini" was filmed there.
I lived on Hilton Head for several years and it was heaven! There was a place in Beaufort called Squat and Gobble that had fried pickles. They were good!
I was raised in Beaufort and currently forced to live elsewhere because of work, but man do I wish I was back. But if you’re trying to look for the more rundown/less developed and old you gotta go out to Saint Helena and the Burton Wells area. We also do have a traditional beach it’s just 20 minutes away from Lady’s Island.
Spent a night here once. Beautiful. Honestly, I prefer it over Charleston: it has the grand architecture and enormous live oaks, but it is much less hectic.
I love Beaufort. I lived at Port Royal which is around 12 mins. away from Beaufort. Wish you did visited Port Royal. A hidden small beach there call The Sands. A wonderful walkway with tower. Great fishing and many hidden eateries here at Port Royal and some small shops as well. I had work at Food Lion and work on the MCRD Parris Island base. So there are jobs here to able to live here. Went to church in Beaufort. You caught it on film at 16:18 Baptist Church of Beaufort.
This looks totally charming , so pretty .
Beauford, SC is a happy secret of mine. If I had to move anywhere in mainland USA, Beaufort's it. Hey, Nick! I went to Mikimoto's in my "city" Wilmington DE and ordered what you did as tribute. Lord, man, IMO you have good taste! 😋
That place is great!!!
Nick, good to see you stayed at City Lofts. A tremendous renovation. I was a bit confused by your commentary, though, as it seemed to be a pendulum of thoughts. My contention is that the beauty of Beaufort, my favorite town in the country, is that not all big box/chain restaurants are in view. I will attest, that ghosts do play a big role. To your realtors' comments, please know Beaufort County includes Hilton Head Island, so golf course density is a bit skewed. Beaufort proper, maybe 8-10 courses. Also, while you were on Cat Island for upscale housing, Newpoint, Habersham, Distant Island are some of the higher end communities. Good call on Charleston Light.
Beautiful Beaufort by the Sea, 26 miles from Yemassee. I love it here. I just hope there’s a lid kept up on the tourism and expansion. We dont want to be like Bluffton and Hilton Head.
Very rich in heritage in Beaufort most of my family roots was planted there coming from Sierra Leone,west Africa love Beaufort. The mosquitos are killers tho mixed in with sweltering heat best to stay in.
The beach is 20 min from where I are and it has big beautiful sand where you can take your chair 💺 and relax your video missed this!
Love SC, my daughter and husband lives In Moncks Corner and I love it. I love Summerville as well. Cute quaint town.
I took basic training at Parris island and basic training at Fort Jackson in this state. It was too damn hot for me and I have never been back.
I was born and raised in Beaufort. You represented the town well in your video. Taxes are ridiculous here. Homes are very expensive due to the fact that most of the land is so close to water. I’m in the process of purchasing my first home and I am struggling to find something reasonable in the 240K-270K range. A lot of homes are over priced but still sell really quickly because military families are moving here in droves. Crime can be bad, but it’s only bad if you go looking for it. With that being said It is a very charming town. It’s a perfect place to retire. Young people struggle to find things to do. I would’ve moved a long time ago, if it wasn’t for my family’s business. Not the best place to live if you are in you 20’s or early 30’s. The night life is almost nonexistent. Thank God it’s near Savannah GA and Charleston SC. If you live near Beaufort and you are in need of an affordable vehicle stop by Auto Genius USA.
Thank you, it seemed beautiful and chill but lacking the sort of night culture that I am accustomed to.
@@realeyesrealizereallies427 Thank you so much!!! Definitely would be weird to go somewhere without a goth or metal scene to integrate into!
Wow, you are so talented!
Love it
Great video
I like your videos man. did to do one in myrtle beach memorial day weekend...lol
I need to
Live and play in Beaufort!
Again, live and play in Beaufort, SC!
I just kept thinking about A Walk to Remember while watching this video.
