Best In South Carolina Real Estate™: Grand Strand

81.0% of the Grand Strand’s large apartment stock is concentrated in just three ZIP codes—ZIP 29582, 29572, and 29577. This isn't just about distribution; it's about structural dominance. The data reveals a region where rental supply is not spread but dominated, creating two distinct realities: hyper-saturated zones and underserved areas. This imbalance is not accidental—it reflects long-term development patterns and investment clustering. For investors, this means risk and opportunity are not evenly distributed. For policymakers, it underscores the need for targeted zoning and infrastructure planning. For residents, it shapes mobility and affordability.
