Discover the beauty and excitement of the Savannah region.

You're new home is just a short drive from the shops, restaurants and historic charm of a true American treasure.

In 1733 General James Edward Oglethorpe arrived here with English settlers to establish America’s 13th colony of Georgia. A small Indian town and trading post became Georgia’s first city - Savannah. Over the years, it prospered as a thriving center for rice and cotton exports.

A diverse economy – Today, the area thrives on a diverse combination of economic forces including manufacturing, government, healthcare, military and more. In fact, Savannah is home to one of the nation’s busiest container ports and the Savannah International Airport.

Travel and tourism – While Savannah grows into a dynamic modern destination, it carefully maintains its historic charm. Its centerpiece is a 2.5-square-mile Historic District filled with renovated homes, historic churches, museums, lush parks and squares. Stroll along streets lined with azaleas and under oak canopies heavy with Spanish moss. Visit historic buildings along cobblestoned River Street and City Market, now home to shops, restaurants and inns.

Modern amenities – Just across the Savannah River on Hutchinson Island, you’ll find the Savannah Harbor Resort and the Savannah International Trade and Convention Center, completed in 2000. South of the Historic District are the thriving Midtown and Southside areas with shopping malls, restaurants, business districts, healthcare centers and more. Sports fans can even take in a ball game at historic Grayson Stadium, home of the Savannah Sand Gnats.
