Like a self-checkout at the supermarket, it's great for the introverts that don't want to have a conversation. One of the "study" rooms was open this afternoon and I was able to spend some time with laptops set up and be on a few Zoom calls before the end of my workday. A terrific space and very productive.

Story time rooms, education rooms, computers with educational games, reading nooks in the windows, beautifully designed book shelves and displays, a cool "shark room" which was a reading area with dome windows all around with sharks displayed and a lovely outside area to read. The staff was very helpful and patient with the kids. They helped with the scavenger hunt that they had for children and went over different programs and events they had coming up. It's a little bit of a hike for us, but we will continue going there. My daughter absolutely loves it and tells everyone about it.

For us it was the perfect spot for relocation.

The construction of…read moreseveral neighborhoods including Cane Bay, Carnes Crossroads and Nexton has definitely led to an influx of new residents and new traffic!! The restaurant scene has exploded and many of the popular restaurants that were once downtown have built/added Summerville locations (Halls Chop House, Poughan's Southern Kitchen.) The area is a nice suburb that seems primarily filled with growing families and retirees. I don't feel there is a lot to do necessarily but if coffee shops, eating out, shopping, spa treatments happy hours are your thing it's not too bad. It feels safe which is important and property value has soared due to the growth in the area :) $$$$ There are some hidden spots that are interesting like the small art gallery downtown, a couple of wine bars ect. Overall, it's a growing area that is really nice but getting to the point of being overcrowded.

If there is one place on this earth worse than hell, it's the DMV. For a little background I've…read morelived in Kansas City Kansas, Charlotte NC and most recently Austin TX and of course I've had to deal with vehicle issues in all those states. With that in mind and giving away the ending up front, Summerville DMV is the worst in many ways. First off, the people there are fairly nice so I have no issue with them however that's where the pleasantries cease. In Texas the DMV takes max 30 minutes. My 3 times at the Summerville DMV has taken an average of over 2 hours. In fact, besides Weds, they open at 8:30 am and I get there 30 minutes early to a line already wrapped around the building. That's right, 30 minutes early and you're late. Next up a small tip, before going visit the website and print/fill out all your paperwork up front. I will say this process could be sped up if this part was automated and could be finished online, but I digress. After finally getting a number, be prepared to sit or stand as seating can be limited. This will take at least another hour. The next issue I have is the state nickel and diming us everyway they can (vote wisely people). For context, a license in SC cost $25 where as TX is $10. After moving here I had to switch my plates out. Plates in TX are $20 when I moved there, here it's $350. I asked the lady, what the heck the costs are for and she explained to me: This supports freeway infrastructure (FREE way?), the plate, the county and sales tax. That is by far the most expensive I've had in the other 3 states I have lived in. Also note Texas doesn't have state income taxes..... Next up two of my visits the agents had computer crashes, in fact the last time I went the lady told me her computer crashed twice before it crashed on me, thus having to redo the process. This was another slowdown that should be addressed and considering they get so much money for services they don't provide new computers should be a no brainer. Finally, I think they have a staffing issue as they have approximately 30 stations and they're never more than 2/3 filled. In my opinion put a body at each terminal and get more people in and out quickly. Overall, I don't think it's fair for me to grade SC DMV vs other states b/c, and I'm going to be brutally honest here, SC processes and standards have always stunk (lived here before I moved to other states). But what I can judge on are inefficiencies and price gouging that occur. While there are other DMV options I feel it will be much the same so we're kind of stuck as this is what was voted for. I'm not saying anything new so I'll end up with this; I hate the SC DMV.

However, the downside was that the line at the DMV was very long. What contributed to the long queues is that folks came in unprepared, holding up the line. While I understand that that is the nature of the DMV, it doesn't mean it has to be this way! I hope that staff will look into optimizing their operations like how the DMV in Ladson did, which is asking each person in line what they need assistance with before they ever reach their seats or stations.
