Transportation:
HRC also recommends that you purchase a vehicle, because Savannah has limited public transportation. The average cost for a reliable vehicle is around $3,000 USD. Vehicles in the state of Georgia are required to be insured, please be sure to bring additional funds for this expense. By having a vehicle, you can have the option to live outside the city where the cost of living will be a bit less expensive. If living in town, we suggest you get a bike!
