Let's see how many people move within South Carolina versus those who moved from Palmetto State to another state.
Out of all home moves originating in South Carolina, 39% have been local moves (to another part of the state), with 61% of them being interstate moves (to another state in the country).
If you’re like most South Carolinians and are preparing for a cross-country move, then don’t forget that your best bet is still to hire the services of a reputable interstate moving company. Interstate moves are never a joke and you are not recommended to try any high-risk self-moves.
