I lived in Sevierville, Tennessee for 5 years and had no problems with crime. My husband left the keys in the front door several times and no one attempted to break in!
AND we lived in a trailer park!
And as far as South Carolina, I grew up there, in Greenville. Unfortunately, that has gone downhill A LOT as far as crime. It's sad to see my home state the way it is today. Spartanburg is now called Murderburg and Anderson is just as bad.
South Carolina does have very beautiful towns, though. The one good thing I can say about Greenville is that the jobs are plentiful and they pay well. More businesses are moving in all the time, too.
So if someone is looking for a job, they will find one.
