The Dos and Don’ts of Greenville

Unwritten rules of Greenville

Whether you’re a Greenville native or a relative newcomer, there are just some things every Greenvillian understands to be true.

We asked our readers to share Greenville’s unwritten rules, from common city knowledge to relatable trends and local lingo. You won’t find these rules in a handbook, but they are undoubtedly absorbed by the community — and if you’re not from Greenville, these might be a little difficult to explain.

The unspoken rule everyone knows

“When you have guests from out of town, you have to take them to visit Falls Park.” — Pat B. (The best way to fall for Greenville.)

We’re kind to our neighbors

“Always leave room for bikers on the Prisma Health Swamp Rabbit Trail. ‘On your left!’” — Ryan C.
