Thinking about moving to Bluffton or Hilton Head, South Carolina in 2026? Start here. The question I hear most from people relocating is "which 55+ community is actually right for me?" — and what happens if you pick the wrong one. In this video I walk you through what really changes when you move to the Lowcountry from Florida, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio or Michigan: home prices in Bluffton, Okatie and Hilton Head Island, homeowners insurance, and the South Carolina tax basics, including Social Security and the homestead exemption. Then we go through all six 55+ communities in the Bluffton and Hilton Head area, with monthly fees and the honest trade-off for each: Sun City Hilton Head, Sun City West, Latitude Margaritaville Hilton Head, The Haven at New Riverside, Four Seasons at Carolina Oaks and Four Seasons at Hilton Head Lakes. I also cover how to narrow six communities down to two or three, what people get wrong about 55+ living here, Hilton Head Island prices vs. Bluffton prices, hurricanes and flood zones, a simple 6–12 month timeline for your move, and the story of Judith, who moved here from Naples, Florida.
