Northbridge Terrace

"People are very nice, engaged, and willing to help a stranger with no reservation. It’s beautiful and humbling and a common occurrence. Also, the area is not as class-segregated as other parts of Charleston. In West Ashley, you can find a great home for over a million dollars, and you can find a great home for 60,000 and a little elbow grease. With its historical natural park, good schools, convenient central location, hip and quaint cultural vibe; and being a great place for someone at ANY stage of their life—from young children to retirement—one could easily find a place to call home in West Ashley Charleston. Its multi-ethnic/multi-cultural population, friendly residents, and the town’s ability to accommodate (sidewalks everywhere, affordability, etc.) make West Ashley unique, at least to me :-) oh! And of course the marsh and wildlife preservation. Charlestowne Landing! If you were looking for more specifics, one would be...like how close the neighbors are: if you’re a youth or a teen sneaking out at night or something, if the neighbors see you, they WILL be telling your parents the next day. So people look out for each other in a whole lot of ways. This neighborhood and area, for whatever reason, fosters care and involvement, sometimes petty squabble, but 95% of the time it’s about having everyone’s back, everyone. It’s beautiful."
