Living in Mount Pleasant, SC
Mount Pleasant, SC was recently voted the Number 38 "Best City to Live in the United States" by 24/7 Wall St. This clean, safe and friendly residential community that forms part of the Charleston Metropolitan Area is not only a beautiful and charming city, but a very wealthy one. With a median income of $101,015, it towers over the state median income level of $49,501 making it one of 7 US cities with a higher median household income than that of the state. Mount Pleasant also has many nature parks, museums, and historical sites alongside the tourist destinations that Charleston (~5 min) has to offer. The south of Mount Pleasant SC is easily accessible to Downtown Charleston via the Arthur Ravenel Bridge and to Daniel Island via the Don N. Holt bridge right across the Wando River.
The City of Mount Pleasant has over 84,000 residents (according to the U.S. Census Bureau), a very strong school system (Charleston County) and a diversity of communities to offer in terms of size, age, price, uniformity, amenities, etc. Since the late 90's, Mt. Pleasant has experienced strong population growth. The town implemented a control in the number of new home application permits, which limited the supply of new homes so that they could catch up with the infrastructure development. This "artificial" limitation, coupled with the strong demand during the 2002-2006 boom, inflated home prices to the point that Mt. Pleasant became unaffordable for first-time home buyers. Given the market correction taking place since 2006, the Home Affordability Index (mean income vs. mean home price) for Mt. Pleasant is back at the level it was in 2000. The Mount Pleasant, SC housing market has recovered substantially. New construction projects are popping up all over town, buyer confidence has increased market activity, and inventory levels have decreased dramatically. We are currently in a "seller's market" with only 3.5 months inventory.
