A warm welcome to Charleston to all members of the military!
One of the tough (and at the same time exciting) features of military life is the regular and permanent change of duty stations or PCS. It is hard to find all the information you need to make a good decision about where to live in your new area. It takes time to research and then you arrive just to find out that the information was old. I would like to help you with your transition into the Charleston area by providing you links to great resources in one place.
