Moving within vs moving out of South Carolina

Let's see how many people move within South Carolina versus those who moved from Palmetto State to another state.

Moved Within SC
39%
Moved out of SC
61%

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.

The Office represents the public interest by balancing the concerns of the consumers, the financial stability of public utilities, and the economic development of South Carolina.
