Greenville, SC

It's a perfect blend of small/big town atmosphere. The downtown has won awards and you can live right next to everything for rather cheap. I rented a 3 bedroom apartment on Main Street for around $1200 a month and ended up making money on rent through renting out the extra rooms. It has an incubator, code school, and lively coworking space and a ton of great restaurants. You also have a few colleges on the outskirts of town as well.

I've spent tons of time in Greenville. The wholly-walkable downtown hosts lots of restaurants (recommended: The Lazy Goat), coffee shops, the Greenville Symphony Orchestra, and an extensive park along the river. Local breweries, nearby colleges - everything you'd expect from a small city renaissance, but Greenville's started 10 years early and is pretty well along now.

My wife and I are thinking about moving to Greenville. Would you recommend a particular town? We liked travelers rest. Any complaints about the area?

Sorry I didn't see this until now, but Travelers Rest is about 15 minutes from downtown. I would look into a house in the North Main or West End area if you want close to downtown. Send me an email if you need any more help!
