Greenville, South Carolina, is without a doubt one of the coolest cities in the entire country. Forbes recently ranked it in the top 15 best places to live for young adults. And the reasons why Greenville is in the top 15 are no secret. From fun recreation activities to delicious food, Greenville has it all! If you have lived in Greenville for any time at all, you’ll be able to relate to these 20 signs you are from Greenville.

1. You have walked across the Liberty Bridge countless times.

2. You know all about the chaos that is Woodruff Road traffic.

3. You grew up going on field trips to The Peace Center and Roper Mountain Science Center.

4. You remember when Kiko was born.

5. You've run, walked, biked, or roller-bladed down the Swamp Rabbit Trail.

6. You have gone to get crepes at Tandem. And you’ve Instagrammed a picture of your crepes from Tandem. If you go to Tandem and don’t post a picture, did you really go to Tandem?

7. You think Pretty Place is…well, the prettiest place ever.

8. You’ve tried to climb the roots on this tree.

9. Your summer nights are spent at Greenville Drive baseball games.

10. You’ve found the Mice on Main.

11. You’ve gone hiking at Caesar’s Head, Table Rock, or Paris Mountain.

12. You probably had at least one birthday party at Roller Sports.

13. You’ve used the hashtag “#yeahTHATgreenville”.

14. You have trouble deciding where to go eat downtown because they’re all so delicious. Smoke on the Water? Grill Marks? Mellow Mushroom? Mac’s Speed Shop? Tupelo Honey? Rick Erwin’s? Too bad you can’t be in two places at once!

15. Whenever you go to another city, you’re disgusted at how bad their water tastes.

16. You’ve gone to see the lights at Roper Mountain around Christmastime.

17. You’ve gone to try to get a picture with a celebrity at the BMW Charity Pro-Am Golf Tournament at Thornblade.

18. There’s a cute little coffee shop everywhere you look. There’s Due South, Methodical, The Village Grind, Spill the Beans, Coffee Underground, and many more.

19. You love when it’s time for the Greek Fest so you can get some good gyros and baklava.

20. You can’t wait to see all the new, exciting things happening in the best city in South Carolina (or the world for that matter!).

If you’re not from Greenville, go ahead and plan your visit now. We’d love to have you!

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

Do as I say, not as I do.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
