Savannah Community Information
Savannah, an historic city with a revered past, a vibrant present and an exciting future. Established in 1733 by settlers led by General James Oglethorpe, establishing the 13th Colony of Georgia. Savannah brims with an atmosphere and charm fostered by residents who have cherished and preserved its past. Their love of the city is embodied in the beautifully restored homes, churches and public buildings that grace the city's unique, tree-filled squares, and that affection have given rise to a tourism industry that has boomed dramatically since 1990.
Energized by the upsurge in tourism and other positive economic factors, Savannah is in the enviable position of being able to use its past to enhance its present and future. The city's Historic Landmark District is in the midst of a commercial revitalization that is spilling into the Victoriac District.
Savannah has long been a favorite of visitors enthralled by the azaleas and moss covered live oaks of the historic squares, the quaint atmosphere of the cobblestoned waterfront, the tranquility of the marshlands and beaches and the warmth of the town's residents.
