About the area

East North Charleston is a mixed suburban-industrial and residential district situated between Rivers Avenue and the Cooper River.

While daylight visits for commerce or transit are generally uneventful, localized property and violent crime require sensible vigilance.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
