Why Buyers Choose Pawleys Island

Pawleys Island is the antidote to the rest of the Grand Strand. No high-rises, no chains, no strip. The building restrictions that keep it that way are the whole reason it looks and feels different from everywhere north of it — and they are not going to change.

That scarcity works in an owner's favor. A quarter-mile-wide island with 2,000 year-round residents cannot add much inventory, which is why oceanfront here holds value the way it does.

Bear in mind Pawleys Island is in Georgetown County rather than Horry, so the school district and the property tax calculation differ from Myrtle Beach and the northern Grand Strand. Litchfield Beach is three miles north if you want something similar with more inventory.
