Fort Mill, SC Fire Damage Cleanup and Restoration

You might have read the headlines, seen the construction around town, or waited in the traffic associated with the population boom in York County. But, have you ever wondered who are all of these people, and where do they come from? York County Economic Development was also wondering, and took a closer look. In their first blog, they lay the ground work and focus on why people move here. The number one reason people are moving to our area? Jobs. 

Part 2 of the blog explores where all our new residents are coming from. If you've lived here for any time, you'll find you're hard-pressed to find someone who actually is native. Our new residents are mostly relocating from elsewhere within the Carolinas, followed by residents from New York, Florida and Georgia.

So what is it about a York County lifestyle that is appealing to so many? Maybe they come to relax and enjoy the beautiful waters of the Catawba River and Lake Wylie? Or sports fans drawn in by the world-class amateur sports facilities like the Giordana Velodrome and BMX Supercross Track. Perhaps it’s our top rated public school districts attracting young families. Or, maybe the word has gotten out about the favorable tax rates and the more “bang for your buck” housing stock.

With perhaps a plethora of reasons leading to this data, the migration patterns clearly speak for themselves, York County's draw is real, and likely here to stay.
