I relocated for work and Household incomes average around $105,463 in Bluffton. You can expect to pay around $2,187 for rent here. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The weather takes some getting used to. Anyone in a similar situation? Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem solid.
I've been here 2 years and I'm still on the fence after all this time. The thing nobody mentions is healthcare. It's affordable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the outdoor recreation is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is excellent.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Westside side vs the Sunset side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
No regrets on my end..

Public transit is underrated here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it exceeded my expectations.

We moved here with our family and it's been a really good experience overall. Schools in Meadowbrook area are pretty good. Kids love it here.
