How's the economy in Charleston South Carolina

Pretty good according to Moody's Economy.com in an article in USA Today. The economy in South Carolina and the Charleston metropolitan area is expanding while other states are already in a recession or rated at risk.

The Charleston real estate market has held up very well during the current housing downturn and is probably one of many reasons the economy is much better here than many other areas of the country. Job growth and corresponding population growth have continued to be strong despite signs of weakness in the economy on a national basis.

Hat tip to my favorite Phoenix real estate guy, Jay Thompson.
