Best In South Carolina Real Estate™: Grand Strand

The Grand Strand’s seasonal homes aren’t spread out — they’re overwhelmingly concentrated in just three ZIP codes. According to ALEX Intelligence’s latest data, 52.2% of all seasonal homes in the region are located in ZIP 29582, 29572, and 29575. The data shows that the region’s tourism engine is not evenly distributed, creating deep economic divides even within a single metro. For real estate professionals, developers, and policymakers, this means targeting the top ZIPs is no longer optional — it’s essential. But it also means that the rest of the market risks being left behind.
