(15,863 posts)Goose Creek does not have a lot to recommend it per se. What do you hate about SW Virginia?
I'll try to come back with a more detailed reply if I can get the story from a friend of mine who spent his high school years there. It's basically a military town, so nobody stays that long.

He said as follows:
Best advice is not to live in Goose Creek, but Summerville or Mt Pleasant. Avoid North Charleston like the plague.
I'll edit if he adds some more detail later.
Edit: he adds: Summerville is best choice. Charleston area in general is great.

DO NOT GO THERE.
Charleston is a great place to visit, but unless you like red-neck racist good ol boys who fly the confederate flag, or lots of military guys, and local girls who prey on those military guys - oh the stories I could tell . . . stay away. Far Far away.
Unless you can live on the Beach. Then I'd go.
