Review of Savannah, Georgia


Been here to long
Star Rating - 10/9/2007
So I transfered down here from the Chicago area to go to SCAD and I love it at first -- I first week I was here there was a drive by right in front of one of my buildings, and the guy on the coner got shot in the head. It was at night, and it made my really nervous to cross the street to go to my car later that night. But I come from a town that has really bad crime so I was like no big deal, but the crime is so worse here, way worse. I have been here now for 7 years and I decided to stay because my husband got a really good job, and now I am stick here. I hate the weather,and whoever said that it doesn't get over 120+ heat index, is crazy and I would like to know what weather station they are watching. I hate the BUGS, no matter what you do they are always there,oh and snakes and rats suck too. I think that there is plenty to keep people busy as long as you are into the arts, but there no forest preserves no where to go hiking which my husband and I really enjoy. There is a beach but that gets boring after a while. The food sucks -- I use to love sea food but I have had my fill and I really don't like southern cooking. I try to keep an up beat outlook but sometimes its so hard when its so hott!
