| Brief Overview |
|
|
| The Eighth state to join the union, South Carolina has little to offer beyond marginal lower cost of living and lower pollution levels, AAA rating for the state government bonds (S&P 1999), and lesser density spaces. The people of SC believe in others' honesty and trustworthiness slightly less than the average American. They attend the town functions and school meetings in a lower proportion than the people in any American state do. The crime rates are more, so is unemployment, the educational scores are pathetic and so are the health statistics. In fact, an independent research outfit, Morgan Quinto Press has awarded the South Carolina the 10th state from the bottom in the list of Smartest states. It has also ranked SC as the 3rd least healthy state. More Info (Full Report).... |
