Bought some land in Greer, SC Login/Join

We bought a bit over 5 acres, covered with old growth forest.

We will build a coach house...small home with a heated garage for our motorhome. We are keeping our mountain house, it's 2 hours away.

We really like Greenville. Insurance and taxes will be lower if we change our residency.

No POA, 'Un-zoned Ag land' so we can do whatever we want and the taxes are crazy low.

I'll be close to Palmetto State Arms. Big Grin

My wife's family is in TR. I like that area also. We're very likely to snowbird there when the kids finish high school.

I grew up in Upstate SC. Beautiful area that has become much more cosmopolitan over the last 3 decades.

One of my uncle's family (cousin?) owns a shooting range/gun store in the area. When we were in town last year we checked it out. Nice place. I gave him all the 22mag ammo I had with me for a customer who couldn't get any for his north american. Sharpshooters I believe it is called.

Welcome to the asylum! As in: "South Carolina is too small for a republic and too large for an insane asylum."

I'm down in the Columbia area.

Greer was named for James Manning Greer, whose ancestry traces from Scotland, through Ireland. Many of his descendants still reside in the region. James Manning Greer was a descendant of John Greer, Sr. who surveyed his land in Laurens County in 1750. John and his family were already in Laurens County, prior to the Greer passengers who arrived aboard the ship The Falls in 1764. John Greer's family settled at Duncans Creek between that Creek and the Enoree River and close to Duncan's Creek Presbyterian Church. John, Sr.'s great grandson James Manning Greer settled his family near Greenville in an area that eventually became Greer's Station.

Cool story bro. Razz Big Grin Even though you speaketh the trooth, GA Gator is still plausible with "Gr-ocery n b-eer Greer ". I live at the top of the hill outside Columbia where Mr. Iredell and Mr. Moseley watered and coaled steam engines before Circle K slushied and hot-dog fed the rest of us. Iredell. Moseley. This here theme park without a theme (or a town center) is named Irmo.

I have an interview in Greenville with the Sheriffs Office next Friday.

I love the area.
It was Greenville or Columbia, but Columbia PD put the screw to me.

I am beginning to think I like the Greenville area a little bit more.

I haven't been to Greer yet but that is next on my spot.
