I live in SC and have been by Murphy Village a few times and as was said above, the homes have improved down through the years. Friends used to live in Augusta and the wife worked in a jewelry store and complained of the women shoplifting.
I've dealt with one for years having barns painted. When he started coming I didn't know about the Irish gypsies but am suspicious of anyone coming up offering to do work, so dealt with him at arm's length.
