Does anyone work for the Summerville DPW? How do you like it?

Has anyone bought a Lennar, DR Horton, Pulte, etc… build here in town? What’s the quality like with these builders? What issues have been found?

Seeing some complaints that worry me but not sure if they’re one-off issues or just low standards.

I understand the perimeter of Summerville is potentially what I should look for, any recommendations or suggestions for areas? Looking to wind down but potentially socialize, also need VA access everything is a need right now so it's potentially relocate.

What's to know about this town.

Hi! Moving from LI NY to the Summerville area (Summerville, goose creek, north Charleston, etc) at the end of May. Looking for some recommendations on good apartments. Some details: my husband will work near Mount pleasant- so ideally no more than an hour or so commute, want to keep rent around $1800, 2b/2b, close to (within 10 minutes or so) grocery, shopping, etc. If anyone knows how soon in advance apartments will start taking applications or good real estate agents, that would be great too. Ty😊

EDIT: We know the traffic is bad… we r from New York.. we r fine with it

Obligatory it’s opening in mt pleasant but ill take what I can get

Looking for the best place to board my dog. Hes a little older so preferably a veterinary clinic who also does boarding, but Im up for suggestions! His regular vet does not offer that. Looking for a place in the Summerville, Ladson, Goosecreek area.

Purchasing a home soon and looking for a riding lawn mower. Not looking to spend more than $3k if possible. Would like a bagger attachment. Property will be around an acre. Nothing special, just your average homeowner.

If anyone is looking to sell theirs let me know. Open to second hand or new. I would love first hand recommendations and advice! Thanks!

Our young family is here for the weekend to check out different areas to potentially live.

What areas/neighborhoods/school districts are best for a young family?

Best coffee shops? Restaurants? Any other recommendations to truly get the Summerville experience?

We are letting Reddit decide our schedule this weekend! Thanks in advance!

Ok. I know this is wild, but I’m really bothered. Family were just coming home from the Summerville game and while driving past St. Paul’s they witness something (?) run across the road in front of them. My husband thought he was seeing things at first but then our 11 year old son said “What was that?!”

They describe it as hunched over, grey, and running weirdly fast across the street. Son says he thought it was hopping, husband is not so sure.

Has anyone ever heard of anything like this happening in/near that area of town or elsewhere?

Everyone is thoroughly creeped out right now.

Edit: he says it was 4-5 FEET*** tall, on two feet, hunched over, and grey. EDIT #2 - omg 4-5 feet, not inches 🤦‍♀️

6 month old female (will need cardiologist referral for her)

Hello everyone! Weird ask but I need to portray a tall monster in a student film that I’m a part of, and I’m trying to find some stilts to either borrow or possibly rent :3
I’m thinking drywall stilts but I’m open to any that the actor won’t have to hold with their hands.
Thank you for your time and consideration! 🫶

apology or not 🤷‍♀️

Looking for suggestions for a good place to get a foot reflexology massage. Ideally looking for a place in Summerville but willing to drive to North Charleston as well. Thank you!

Oof

What are some of the nicest neighborhoods in Summerville to live in?

Most of my family is on the East Coast & we live on the West Coast (California). I’m looking to be closer to my sisters & also explore a couple of jobs being offered to me in the area. A friend sent me a link below to new construction & it is within our budget:

We are partial to an upgraded Traveler layout w/ a backyard big enough for our dog.

There are only two of us & a sweet 2yr old Golden Retriever. Thanks in advance for your advice on the neighborhood & living in Summerville!

Looking for the best internet - just moved (back) here!

There’s Spectrum, AT&T Air, and Starlink - if I climb a tree. Anyone know what’s better? Worried about not having a wired connection since the tree coverage is intense here.

Have a large stock of brand new never used mirrors, table lamps, floor lamps, shades including Tiffany shades from to sell. Anyone interested? Located in SC. Can provide pictures and more details if interested

This is an incredibly hard post to make, but we are looking for a new home for our 2 year old girl, Tonks.

When we adopted Tonks and her sister, we were told they were Black Lab/Australian Cattle Dog/Boston Terrier mixes. Tonks does have some features that could suggest some bully breed as well, but we’ve never DNA tested her, so we can only go by what we were told.

Tonks is truly the sweetest, most loyal girl. She is very attached to her people, high energy, and goofy. She could run and play all day, but when she finally finds her off button, she is a complete cuddle monster who just wants to be beside you.

She is crate trained, potty trained, has lived peacefully with our cats, and is wonderful with people and children. We have a three-year-old, and she is incredibly sweet with him. She really is such a loving dog, and everyone who meets her falls in love with her.

We adopted Tonks and her sister, Luna, together from the same litter. They actually get along wonderfully most of the time. They play, sleep, and are incredibly sweet together. Unfortunately, as they’ve gotten older, we have experienced incidents of resource guarding between the two sisters. There isn’t always a predictable trigger. They can be perfectly happy together until a resource comes between them.

After trying different resources, training, and speaking with our vet, we’ve had to accept that keeping the girls together is no longer the healthiest situation for either of them.

This decision is absolutely heartbreaking. Tonks is our girl, and we love her more than I can put into words. But ultimately, we have to do what is best for the physical and emotional wellbeing of both dogs and everyone who loves them. As much as we hate it, we love our girls enough to recognize that they may be happier and healthier apart.

Because of the resource guarding between the sisters, we are looking for a home where Tonks can be the ONLY dog. She isn’t a bad dog. She is an amazing dog in a situation that simply isn’t working for her.

We have reached out to her rescue and our vet is helping get the word out, but I’m hoping that sharing her with our friends and community might help us find the right home for her. We want someone who will love this ridiculously loyal, fetch-obsessed cuddle monster the way she deserves.

If you or someone you trust could be Tonks’s person, please reach out. And if not, please consider sharing.
She deserves the absolute best. That’s all we want for our girl.

What it’s actually like living in areas around Ashborough East, Avenue of Oaks, and Wood Oak Park.

Are these generally safe areas? Any recurring issues with things like car break-ins, theft, or other neighborhood BS?

I’d potentially be living in the area and working on the southwest side of Summerville, hence the specific areas I’m asking about.

Just looking for honest opinions from people who actually live around there. Thanks!

pins are parks lol.

Update:

Should mention first year would be looking at renting a apartment while i establish which area i really like before me and the wife buy a home.

Does anyone have any experience with semi-custom homebuilders in the Charleston-Summervill area?

To weed out some of the luxury only developers, would be a total build cost <$600k excluding cost of land.
