Locals Only  ·  The Field Guide

The communities, read from the inside.

A relocation magazine tells you a community is beautiful. A local tells you which gate is worth the dues and which one is a long drive from anything on a Tuesday night. Thirty Southern luxury addresses, each with a Southern Escapes Score out of 100. Yours to keep.

What's Inside

The homework, done once, done properly.

  • A Southern Escapes Score out of 100 for every community, with the five-pillar breakdown
  • How each place actually lives day to day, not how the brochure says it does
  • Who buys there, and the honest trade most listing copy leaves out
  • Indicative price bands and what the club or membership really involves
  • Why locals rate it, and what to weigh before you commit
  • Lake Keowee, Greenville, Highlands-Cashiers, Asheville, Charleston, Hilton Head, and the equestrian corridor
