I love it. Not a person on the board can say anything about Charleston without you chiming in about Greenville. Your jealousy of Charleston is quite obvious to everyone. It is a well known fact in Charleston about the hate the upstate has for the area. Jealousy is a pitiful thing. I am really surprised you even mentioned Columbia in your post.

Whatever you wish to believe. It's not even worth it to argue with you.

You must understand the motivation for such arguments. It is not just jealousy of Charleston that motivates these types of people to argue back and forth.

Creating the illusion of Greenville as some kind of perfect city is important for real estate sales....so of course a real estate agent that lives in Greenville is going to defend the city!

So actually liking Greenville cannot be a relevant motive to respond?

Says the person who called Upstate residents "hicks" and said, "Charleston is classy Greenville is bland."

Let's take another look at what a few Greenville supporters have said about Greenville vs. Charleston comparison in this thread:

South Carolina as a state is blessed to have BOTH areas to draw from. Together, we make a much stronger whole - why the infantile pissing matches and pointless comparisons?

Again, both are great cities, each with their own advantages. I personally find Greenville to be a much better place to live, and Charleston a nice place to visit occasionally. To each his own.
