Many are drawn to the Upstate by a cost of living that is around 10 percent lower than the national average. Once here, they are blown away to discover that just because most things cost less doesn't mean there's less of it. Housing is plentiful and relatively affordable, and top-quality healthcare easy to access.
The Upstate has as much to offer after work hours as during. With an active nightlife and a wide range of cultural activities from Broadway musicals to college football, there's always something to do. And the Upstate's many lakes and mountains offer an impressive choice of recreational activities, including hiking, boating, and golfing.
