In 1700, European settlers entered here and started rice farming because of the Island's favorable climate for the crop. With the kind of kitchens that we can delivery it'd make these settlers jealous that Pawlseys Island kitchen remodeling was not yet a thing! All of the lands here were allocated to the Pawleys Family during the colonial era, thus changing its name from “Chiquola” to Pawleys Island. Although the rice plantation turned out to be very successful but brought in scourges of mosquitoes because of the marshy rice fields. Thus the locals would resort to the area now known as the town of Pawleys Island during summers because of the strong ocean breezes. Later the owners began selling portions of its land to these temporary settlers, thus initiating the establishment of this town.
According to the 2010 census, the number of all-time residents in this town is only 100, which shows a decline from 138 in 2000. The reasons being the lack of necessary infrastructure to sustain a quality life such as the average education system, inadequate economic opportunities, lack of efficient public transport, and under commercialization. But this off-beat place charm is what sets it apart from typical vacation spots. The locals take pride in their laid-back and idyllic lifestyle, which is often referred to as “arrogantly shabby” by some outsiders, but they are very persistent in preserving it. The town administration has implemented a ban on the construction of commercial and industrial properties to preserve its natural ecosystem.
Visitors often come here when they want to take a break from their busy lives and want to luxuriate on the serenity offered by the town.
