It’s no secret that Your Survival Guy is a fan of South Carolina. And now the state is being recognized by Americans looking to move as one of the country’s best. Travel + Leisure’s Kristine Hansen reports that the Palmetto State is the most popular place ot move in 2025. She writes:
Known for its beautiful islands, beaches, and lowcountry charm, it’s no wonder South Carolina attracts tons of residents. And the Palmetto State was just ranked the top state in the country for moves for 2025.
The ranking was according to a moving trends report by moveBuddha, an online platform to help people plan a move, and represented South Carolina’s sixth consecutive year on the top of the list. In fact, the report found people in South Carolina showed more than double the interest in moving to the state than leaving.
With a rare combination of mountains and beaches, incredible food cities, and mild winter temperatures, the state continues to attract new residents.
“Despite a recent uptick, this year’s drag on home sales is showing up in moving patterns, too,” moveBuddha wrote in its report. “Yet, there are still those who are pulling the trigger. They’re aiming for buyer-friendly states and suburban enclaves where a mortgage won’t break the bank.”
