"Close to Wilmington and Myrtle Beach (restaurants, night life, UNCW, shopping, airport, etc) yet perfectly far enough to be country living! Very close to multiple beaches. Friendly, laid back community where it is acceptable to wear pajamas to Wal-Mart, lol! Big city folk would probably be bored here year round. "

"I lived many years in southeastern NC (Brunswick Co). Briarwood Golf Course is only a hour away from the heart of Myrtle Beach and lots to do. The beaches are beautiful (Ocean Isle is only minutes away). The people are nice and they look out for one another. This area is NOT BAD and drug use in the county is no worse than any other place in the country. Quiet and beautiful...yet this is a growing and vibrant area with great housing prices! Shame on the person who posted that the area is "bad". Absolutely false information!"
