Many of you probably felt it last week, and you’re likely continuing to feel it this week.

Greenville, South Carolina has just been ranked third in the entire nation for the most challenging places to live with seasonal allergies according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America.


Greenville only ranked under Wichita, Kansas and Virginia Beach, Virginia.

The report looked at three main factors, that being pollen count, over-the-counter allergy medication usage, and the availability of board-certified allergists and immunologists.

Greenville ranked especially high due to the level of usage of over-the-counter allergy medication.

Greenville wasn’t the only city in the area to hit the list either, with Raleigh, North Carolina breaking the top ten at number nine.

Raleigh made its way onto the list due to above-average usage of over-the-counter allergy medication and the availability of allergists and immunologists.
