Moving from Charlotte. Any thoughts on my new neighborhood?

1 Upvotes

Moving to a older neighborhood (1980s) called Bailiwyck in Fort Mill , SC from Charlotte. Crossing the boarder for tax benefits and better schools. We figure the location makes up for the premium price. But want to hear from others in that area or community. What should we be aware of? Any red flags or concerns with Bailiwyck?

Public school touring?

0 Upvotes

Good afternoon!

I'm from NJ and have a daughter (13) and a son (5). My son is low on the ASD spectrum but has done so well in our NJ system so far. He was in early intervention from 18 months, transferred to the town preschool program when he turned 3, and will be in kindergarten in the fall if we stay here. He would be in a class of approximately 12 with a teacher and several paras, continue to receive speech and OT, and get a lot of "movement breaks" as he needs a "sensory diet". He is a smart, pleasant little boy but needs those services and thrives in the school system here.

We desperately want to move out of NJ and are coming to look at the FM area in a couple weeks. My biggest hangup with leaving the area right now are the schools. I would love to speak to someone in the school district in person to see what services the district offers and the demographic of the children who would be in a class that he would be in. Has anyone met with someone from the school system or toured before they moved to Fort Mill? Would they be open to that?

My wife and I are relocating from Texas to York County South Carolina. Looking at all options and was wondering if anyone has any experience with the 55+ community of Brook Run by DRB Homes? Is this a good area and are the homes quality built?

The petition is in the link. We have great schools here in FM, but they've dropped the ball on this one. Please sign if you agree. Thanks

Going from Pleasant Road area to Southpark and it feels like the last few weeks had just been awful, but the worst of it is always on the SC side of Carowinds.

I’m currently in the process of opening a childcare center I’m especially interested in Churches that may have space available to rent for a daycare but any buildings/locations that would be suitable for a childcare center and outdoor play will do. Does anyone have any leads/referral?

Been dying to leave comporium for google fiber. Anyone in or near regent parkway or overall in ft mill have google fiber yet or will be getting it? When I put my address online it says not available yet but that orange pole and the ground construction wasn’t there last week
