Let’s talk about the cost of living in Greenville. The median household income in Greenville County is $76,334 according to the US Census Bureau. State-wise, South Carolina is No. 42 in the country for median income at ~$67,804 per household. Nice — we make a little more than the state average.
How much is rent?
The median rent in Greenville County is $1,295 — higher than the average rent in South Carolina: $1,170. Compare that to the median gross rent in the US: $1,406 per the American Community Survey 1-Year estimate.
How much do groceries cost?
Your grocery bill will vary based on your family size and dietary needs, but we can give you a sense of what you’ll be spending in the checkout line. On average, a pound of tomatoes will cost you about $2.60 in Greenville, and a gallon of milk averages at $3.42.
