hilton head makes top ten in national well-being survey

We've known it for years, but the rest of the world is starting to discover what makes the low country and the Bluffton/Hilton Head area so special. A Gallup-Healthways State of Well-being survey ranks the Hilton Head-Bluffton area at 9 in a ranking of a total of 189 communities across the United States.

Perhaps its the area's rich historical heritage, or the region's renowned reputation for sport fishing, golf and other recreational activities. Whatever the root cause is, the fact is the Bluffton and Hilton Head corner of South Carolina is literally teeming with delicious restaurants and a thriving arts scene, in an addictive small-town setting that locals love, and travelers love to visit.

The National Well-Being Survey

The 2016 Community Well-Being Rankings aims to list the areas in the country that have demonstrated the highest level of well-being and happiness. They've based their ranking on 5 primary factors:

  • Purpose: Liking what you do each day & being motivated to achieve your goals.
  • Social: Having supportive relationships & love in your life.
  • Financial: Managing your economic life to reduce stress and increase security.
  • Community: Liking where you live, feeling safe and having pride in your community.
  • Physical: Having good health & enough energy to get things done daily.

Hilton Head Island and Bluffton scored especially well in the purpose and social rank factor categories, topping the index in the social category, while coming in ninth for purpose. This translates to a local community happy with what they do from day to day, with a strong, loving support group and family network.
