My hometown, as well. I’ve lived in cities from Orlando to Little Rock to Nashville to Pittsburgh, and Jacksonville is the best place.

I’ve lived here my whole life. We have lots of transplants due to the two Navy bases as well as Marines. Many businesses set up operations specifically for the low cost of living and doing business. It is an interesting city in that the land mass is huge and we largely avoid our downtown (it needs revitilization badly) however the “suburbs” (which are still technically Jacksonville) are where all the shopping/nightlife/housing happen. Its easy to get to the beaches quickly and smack in the middle of Atlanta and Miami (6 hours either way). Its not as historic as, say, Charleston but St Augustine is less than an hour away and Savannah is a little longer. Have fun in your search!

I’d like to throw Northeast Florida out there if you’re considering Savannah. There’s a huge range of home prices/areas here from Fernandina Beach down to St Augustine, with Jacksonville in the middle. Its not all rednecky as the media would have you believe and the cost of living is quite reasonable. No state taxes either.

Savannah is gorgeous! If you liked Charleston then I’m positive you’ll find it just as picturesque with the exception that Charleston has a beach-ier feel to it since its right on the coast. Both have incredibly rich history if you’re into the colonial era. Savannah is full of old (though renovated) historical architecture and oak trees with hanging spanish moss which is really breathtaking. If you don’t plan on moving there, I would definitely definitely visit or vacation!

It’s definitely the most amazing place you’ll ever go. :) I’d love to move there myself, and I may as well: I’ve probably been there at least eight times in the last three years, lol.

Thank you! I absolutely positively loved Charleston, and the seafood. Does Savannah have that same kind of historical picturesqueness with the pretty trees and everything? The pictures looked like it did. LOVED Charleston. So much.

I live in SC (yuck!) I honestly believe that Charleston and Savannah are close to the same in terms of cost of living. You could move right outside each city and it would be very cheap, but inside the city will be pretty expensive. I’d choose Savannah any day though (you can drink in the streets whoo). Both have great history and are absolutely beautiful. If you’re looking for something warm and on the coast you won’t find any place better! Not to mention the best seafood on the east coast.

That’s on the list too! I need to check it out more, but I think that might end up being our honeymoon place. My boyfriend wants to go there basically more than anywhere else in the country, and I think it looks pretty amazing as well. Now I need to look at more pictures!

From the little bit I read, it looked like the cost of living was quite a bit higher than Savannah? I might be completely wrong though, but Charleston is definitely on the list of awesome places where I would love to live. I visited a few years ago and it was so lovely!
