Our Take
Carolina Forest, a suburban area in Myrtle Beach, offers a mix of convenience, affordability, and family-friendly amenities. However, it may not be the most walkable or transit-friendly community, and home values have likely increased significantly since 2022. Overall, it's a solid choice for families and first-time buyers, but may not suit those prioritizing urban or walkable living.
