anyone from Savannah, Ga?
 

I *might* be moving to Savanna, and I wanted to get a opinions on the town. I've heard some different things about it.

1. that it was a great town. people are nice..etc.

2. other side. crime is terrible. people aren't so great. ohh, crime is terrible.

it would be nice to see some of your opinions.

i am from atlanta and have been to savannah quite a bit

from what I have seen from being there, it is a great town, HUGE party town......people are nice anywhere though, you just have to know when and where they are nice....as a whole though, all of georgia is a great place with wonderful people

lots of southern hospitality ;)

Everytime I've visited that place is a dump.

Savannah is a nice town, definitely a party town, very easy to get lost in if you arent familiar with it however. I've enjoyed every visit there, never had any problems.

being that I'm from south florida, where we have alot of assholes, this might be a pleasant break.

I was born there - but haven't been back since I was a kid :winkwink:

It's a beautiful, old historic city. I absolutely love to go there. Fabulous climate, stunning architecture, and the people are friendly. Even though I've never had trouble, the crime is definitely a factor. One of my friends from college moved there the day after we graduated to take a job, and within 2 months she was brutally murdered. It was horrible.

Go rent "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" and you'll see some great Savannah shots.

that is horrible. I am seriously have second thoughts about Savannah

I hope you would have a good time there. tc

bump for the morning crew.

i moved from west palm to podunk ga a few months ago, cant deal with the hurricanes and extremely fast rising housing costs. i have some family here so its not so bad, kinda enjoying it. savannah is pretty nice, couple/few hours east of me, ive been a couple times over the last decade.

you think the crime will be worse in savannah than in west palm?

Get a good real estate agent. Like every other city there are good and bad parts to Savannah.

I guess that's the thing. I know West Palm/Miami. So I know how to get into trouble, and stay out of it.

Yeah, I'm with ya Peaches. The good news, the people that want me up there have lived/do live there now. So they can steer me in the right direction.

Southern people for the most part are polite which is so far from nice. I have found and most have that transplanted from here. People from up north much more real, which I prefer.

I live basically in the 5th burrow of New York. This is where New Yorkers send their parents to die. So I think any change in people and attitudes would be good. I spent some time in Mississippi too, so I know how the southern people are. Good fucking tea too!
