🏆 Ranked #1 in South Carolina for Income Gap Between Arriving and Departing Households — ALEX Intelligence, 2023.
This 97.8% income gap is not just a number—it’s a signal of structural economic advantage. Hilton Head is not just growing; it’s attracting higher-income households at a rate unmatched in the state. The data, drawn from IRS county-to-county migration flows (2022–23), reveals a region where wealth inflow is a defining feature of development.
But Hilton Head leads South Carolina by a significant margin.
