Living in Savannah — the reality
So, I'm a 51-year-old restaurant manager and Average temperature is around 68°F, so the weather is moderate. Household incomes average around $56,782 in Savannah. Rent is about $1,302/month for a decent place. It's a a mid-size city city with about 148K people. Poverty rate is 13.2%, which is around average. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. The weather takes some getting used to.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Friendly people
- Diverse community
- Good airport connections
Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Cold winters
- Limited cultural events
