Hi,

I am a recent college graduate who has accepted a job with a corporation based out of the Savannah Area. I need to relocate to Savannah for about 6 months to a year for corporate training (I am originally from out of state)and I have no idea about the area in general...

I guess my question is, where is a good location to Rent that is generally affordable,and on the safer side?

Any past experiences or advice will help!

Thanks Allot!

Because of the general area, (rivers, marshes, etc.) it's difficult to suggest a particular area that would be best for you unless we had an idea of where you would be training.

There are east side locations, such as Wilmington Island, that would be ideal if you were going to be on the east side of Savannah. But a big commute problem if you had to go over on the west side. Pooler is great for the westside or toward the Rincon or Richmond Hill Areas.

Also....what's your idea of affordable? 500 per month? 1000 per month? 1500? rates vary a great deal depending on location. Do you want an apartment or a house?

I have been looking at townhomes on realtor.com. All I like seem to be in a neighborhood called Oakdale, on the google map app it says Highland Park. The streets look beautiful, close to coffee shop to walk my dog. I'm retired engineer I will be there alone a % of time, my husband will be on west coast part time. Is this a safe area?

City Data has very detailed demographics on "Oakdale-Savannah". I know the area only from a point of view that I sometimes play golf at Bacon. BTW, Bacon is a lot more than golf. Check it out.

Man, some of these newbies never cease to amaze me at the randomness of reviving ancient posts! Do they just scroll forever and decide "oh, this one looks good!" ?

Nearly 7 years later.. here we are!
