Mount Pleasant SC Market ReviewMount Pleasant, SC Real Estate
Updated as of May,2008 - Before we begin I just wanted to clarify some points for you. All of this data was collected from the South Carolina Association of Realtors Multiple Listing Service (SCAR MLS). The data that was collected was for SCAR MLS defined areas for the Mount Pleasant SC MLS and not the Municipality of Mount Pleasant. This variation however should not be significant for our needs.

Mount Pleasant, S.C.
First inhabited by the Sewee Indians, Mount Pleasant's first English settlers arrived in 1680. One of the earliest maps of the area calls it "North Point." In 1770 Andrew Hibben obtained a ferry charter and bought land from Jacob Motte on the south side of Shem Creek. Hibben's ferry was the first to connect the town with the city of Charleston. A newspaper article in 1889 reported, "The health of Mount Pleasant has been unprecedently fine for the past year. The town council expends about $2,000 on the streets and other necessary improvement, and the money is so judiciously applied that Mount Pleasant, in regard to general appearance, is one of the model towns of the state." Today, with the crowning achievement of the Ravenel Bridge linking Mount Pleasant to Charleston, the town is known for its beautiful communities, great shopping and dining options, and proximity to beaches. With a population of about 58,000, the town recently surpassed Greenville as the fourth largest municipality in the state. Money Magazine ranked it at No. 70 in its list of the 100 Best Places to Live in the United States. At the heart of Mount Pleasant is the "Old Village," a National Register Historic District with gracious homes from the colonial and antebellum periods. The town is also home to one of the world's largest naval and maritime museum complexes, Patriots Point, which is dominated by the famous World War II aircraft carrier Yorktown and houses several other ships as well. It is one of the top tourist destinations in South Carolina.
