When talking to clients about living in Beaufort, I am alwaysinterested to learn the various reasons they have for moving to (orremaining in) Beaufort. During my years in the area I have probablyheard hundreds of reasons, but in this article I've decided to narrowit down to the top ten reasons to people love to live in Beaufort: 1."I love Activities on the Water!" With all the beaches, rivers andtidal creeks that lie in the Beaufort area, we often have to askclients what kind of water activities they're looking for. Beachgoerslove Hunting Island State Park for it's beautifully secluded beachesand picnic areas.  If you're looking for seclusion, then maybe privatebeaches like Fripp Island or Harbor Island.  Boaters who love to cruiseor fish beware.  Beaufort has so many inlet rivers and tidal creeks,you could have trouble exploring them all in a lifetime. 2. "Welove this Quiet Little Town."  I might hear this more than any reasonpeople live in Beaufort.  There are two types of Beaufortonians.  Thefirst is born and raised here.  The second has moved here.  No matterwhich, they all agree that they love the small town feel.  In a timewhere most areas have far too much urban sprawl, Beaufort remainsrelatively unspoiled.  I cannot count the clients that have moved fromlarger cities such as Atlanta and Charlotte.  Big time development andgridlock traffic is something we here certainly don't miss. 3."Lots of culture and history." Being the 2nd oldest town in SouthCarolina, Beaufort's history is still prominent today.  Historicarchitecture, Gullah Culture, and past civil war monuments mark daysgone by.  Our history has paved the way for a lot of tourism. Residentsand visitors alike enjoy taking carriage tours of the downtown historicdistrict, touring the Penn Center, and viewing the Antebellum homes inthe Old Point section of town. 4. "All the Festivals." You nameit, we have a festival for it here.  Among these are the Water, SoftShell Crab, Shrimp, Gullah, Sea Music, and Film Festivals to name afew.  The most famous is the Water Festival, which attracts tens ofthousands.  In a smaller town, it is great to have constant cityorganized events to go to.  Seniors, families, and young love birds canall be seen in attendance. 5. "I'm ready to retire." CNN Money,Reuters, and Carolina Living all named Beaufort, South Carolina to it'stop ten places to retire.  Dataw Island is commonly referred to asBeaufort's best retirement community. 6. "It's a GREAT place toraise a family." Small town values and lack of big city distractionsmake the area a wonderful place to raise a family.  Living in a smalltown makes a community tighter.  The adults do more activitiestogether, children grow up together forming with life-long friendships,and much of the big town mischief doesn't happen here.  Families herealso enjoy parks, festivals and boating activities held throughout theyear. 7. "A good job market is important." While no big industryresides here, historic and resort tourism, real estate and medicalcenters provide a very low unemployment rate and lots of jobs. Beaufort Memorial, the resort islands of Harbor and Fripp, some of theprettiest property in the country all are part of what make the jobmarket very strong. 8. "Wow, the weather!!" Mild climate iscertainly one of the top reasons that clients move to Beaufort.  In the70s for around 6 months a year, I cannot imagine anywhere to top ourweather. 9. "Lots of Southern Hospitality and Charm." The firstthing I noticed when exploring the Beaufort area was how incrediblynice the people are.  If you don't want to take my word for it,Southern Living readers have voted Beaufort the top Southern Small Townfor 7 years in a row. 10. "All the Food!"  One of the thingspeople really love Beaufort is the food.  Being a small town there arenot thousands of restaurants like other big cities.  What the townlacks in quantity is makes up for in quality.  Unlike many cities,Beaufort hasn't turned into a strip mall of chain restaurants.  On justabout ever corner, there is a Mom n' Pop's eatery that will have yourtaste buds begging for more.  The best part is it's all original.  Ifyou eat at Yes Thai Indeed, LT's County Cookin, or Bricks on Boundaryyou better enjoy it.  Because you won't find these places any whereelse in the world.    Delicious, original food is a Beaufort tradition. Beaufortis a great place to live in. The reasons to live here are as varied asthe people who give them. Beaufort attracts all kinds of people -singles as well as families, Northerners and native Southerners,younger and older people (and all the ages in between).
