Hello! I have a BA in psychology and am wondering how I could get into teaching special education. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.

I’ve seen her around, first on Tikrok but then I decided to look up more about her.

she’s educated and looks out for the children, isn’t that what people want? someone who genuinely cares about their precious kiddos? especially in this heavy red state

Idk, I want her to have a shot. Graham has been in office before I was born..can we have someone new? something more refreshing. what do y’all think?

I'm tired of graham making promises and fails EVERY TIME, we need people who care for our kids, our education, and our veterans.

but who knows, will it be different this time or a new GOP ? lmk

I was going to get my friend a Wawa gift card (gas station/ convenience store where you can get made to order food), but turns out they aren’t in that area. Is there an equivalent down there?

I was recently pulled over by a City of Columbia officer for going 68 in a 35 — which puts me at 25+ over the limit. I've already gotten a few quotes for legal representation but wanted to hear from others who've been in a similar situation.

Specifically, I'm curious what people paid to be represented for something like this and what the outcome was. I've heard it's sometimes possible to get it reduced to a non-moving violation to avoid the 6 points, potentially with a defensive driving course requirement. Has anyone gone through this process? What did representation cost you and how did it turn out?

I was going to get my friend a Wawa gift card, but it appears they don’t exist in SC. Is there a sheetz/wawa equivalent down there?

My friends and I (young adults) are considering taking a trip up to columbia/lake murray for a day trip! Any reccomendations on things to do nearby?

I’ve been tied up in settling my dad’s estate in probate for about 2.5 years. This year I finally managed to get a new title for his vehicle (when his widow decided to cooperate) and found out an ex is still listed on the title with an “Or”. The tag expired last year, the widow cancelled insurance, and I need to know if I can turn in the old tag or wait until contacting the ex about the vehicle. The vehicle is now in my possession (was in the widow’s possession).

I have an opportunity to potentially move to Pawley's Island from the northeast. I'm researching the area quite a bit and am planning a trip soon. But I'm curious to know more about the area. I've heard from a few people that it's more a "retirement" spot and a "dying island". What do I need to know as a 34 year old woman about living there?

My husband and I. are from Denver Colorado and want to move to Long's South Carolina to retire.1. Never done a long distance move can someone tell me what the best time of year to move from Colorado to South Carolina would be?? 2. We have heard horror stories about movers long distance. Would like recommendations for best possible Movers and your experience if it was a good one. Thank you in advance

Hi, I’m looking for a private lender who offers short-term cash loans here in Columbia, SC? I have poor credit because of previous hardships so I'm struggling on getting a loan but I’m employed now in a school district and can provide proof of income. Thank you.

Hello. My brother and his family of 5 will be relocating to Conway SC from NJ this summer. They are convinced the COL is more affordable, schools are good for the kids, and they will be over the moon happy. I don’t want to leave NJ just yet at least and see myself here another 5–10 years. However, my parents are debating buying a second home to “snow bird” during their retirement. What are all of your opinion on the area? How is healthcare (for my aging parents)? I am planning on attending nursing school up here and want to work 2-3 years to get experience before moving. How is the job field for RNs and COL for a single individual on RN wage? Thanks for any information.

Hi! Me my husband and our 6 year old will be moving to Conway to be closer to family.

I am a licensed CPS investigator currently in NYS.

Does anyone have any advice about Horry county DSS?

I’ll be visiting next week to tour homes and start the home buying process. Thanks for any advice.

Hey all. Title pretty much sums it up. I’m moving to Rock Hill from a rural area of Virginia. I’m a man in my lower 20s. What should I know about the area? How have you all met people and made friends?

I just moved to the Aiken area in SC and i want to make friends but I don’t know any hangout spots or ways to find other alternative people my age (high school). I also want to get in to the local scene, so any band/venue recommendations are appreciated!

Hey there, I’m posting this to ask consensus on whether or not it might be a good move for me… right now I’m making $30/hr in PA…

But taking a $5 pay decrease and moving to SC would land me experience for a better paying job around three years in the future. ($50/hr better.)

I’m not sure what it’s like over there, never really traveled too much, but what I’m most curious about is whether it’s decent living out there if I’m spending $200/week on groceries, working Sun, Mon, Tue and alternating Saturdays 12 hour shifts at $25

I’d hate to move there and end up living in my car again as I’ve been living in my car the last 5 years.

Any help is appreciated!

Hello! Trying to get some insight on possibly relocating to SC. I have lived in New England since I was a kid, but originally born in SC. I spent all my summers and school breaks down there, visiting grandparents, cousins and extended family. Now, I’m in my late 20s and my husband and I are currently thinking of relocating to SC. We both work remote, so jobs are not an issue. No kids, so schools aren’t a big issue either. My family is originally from Orangeburg..which I know people have strong feelings about lol. We recently visited Greenville and personally, we were not crazy about the traffic and congestion! Tbh, felt like New England to us. We’re looking for something maybe in the middle? We are both definitely slower pace of life people. But would still like a little something to do? Places we are now researching to visit are Aiken, Camden and Newberry. Was wondering if anyone has any insight on these areas? What it’s like to live there?

okay I am visiting a friend with my partner, she lives in lexington and im staying in colombia can someone list some fun places to go to? I am 21 and my boyfriend is 24 it can be charleston as well but 1 hour distance just so i have an idea we’re from miami so i assume there will be less things to do and i kind of want an idea any recommendations will be appreciated.

My partner and I are looking to relocate somewhere near the coast — preferably not too far north and with little to no snow if possible. We’d love recommendations for mid-sized cities that have decent universities, are fairly police-friendly (for my spouse’s career), and are still reasonably affordable. We’re also really drawn to places with a strong arts, music, or history scene. Big bonus points for good fishing and that laid-back Southern coastal lifestyle. Would love to hear any suggestions or personal experiences!
