Pooler is the best part of Savannah. It is clean, safe, conveniently located, and growing fast. Constructed on an open-air mall in Pooler is slated to start in 2010. It will also have a theatre and a Target. Lowe's just opened up in Pooler as well. In addition, Pooler has started getting some restaurants that Savannah doesn't have! There is a Cheddar's and Fatz Cafe opening up in Pooler next month, both of which Savannah doesn't have. If you are searching for houses, look at Godley Station and Savannah Quarters, both located off Pooler Pkwy.

It is very true. I go by the Cheddars many times and can't believe how fast they have built it. It's amazing. There are a lot of doctors moving out to Pooler as well. I have heard the mall rumors. I can't imagine what Pooler will look like when it's done.

We didn't really choose the area, it just was the closest place to where this job was located. We heard from the employees that this was a nice area, and only about 10 minutes from the plant.
My husband acually turned down the job offer yesterday, but does have one more option in this area. Not sure?
Thanks for your reply!
