I was born 90 miles south of Savanna and went to college at GSU. Been to Savanna many times, especially for the St. Patty's day celebration on River Street when I was younger. It is an old coastal city with a very nice historical section mixed in with some very modern developments. It is a nice city, but it does have it's darker side. It has a high crime rate per population density and that includes violent crimes (I knew a girl that was raped, beaten, and then murdered in Savanna. I also had a guy (pimp) pull a gun on me at a red light when I yelled at him to stop beating a women (hooker). It was after 1:00 AM in the morning on the wrong side of town and needless to say I ran the red light.
