Greenville locals have lots to love about this fast-growing yet still affordable city.
October 13, 2022 (Source: Livability.com) – Back in 2020, at the height of the pandemic, Adam Reitz and his wife were both laid off from their jobs and had the unique opportunity to scout out new cities where they could start their next chapter.
As they researched quality of life factors in cities, Greenville, South Carolina, kept popping up on the kinds of lists that are filled with superlatives – like CNBC’s Best Places for Millennials. So, they took a gamble, packed up their belongings in Seattle and, along with their pets, made the cross-country move to Greenville.
In Greenville, Reitz and his wife were met with friendly neighbors, a favorable job market, affordable homes and an abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities to fill up their free time.
“We haven’t looked back,” says Reitz, a technology consultant at TSAChoice Inc., an information technology solutions company. “We love it here. Greenville has been really good to us.”
