Bingville
Suburban Neighborhood in Savannah, Georgia
Chatham County 31405
Picturesque streets lined with midcentury bungalows
Most homes in Bingville are compact Craftsman-style bungalows from the 1930s to 1950s, with cross-gabled roofs and big covered front porches. They sit on petite, grassy lots surrounded by tall, mature oak trees. Residents adorn their front yards with flower bushes and shrubs; backyards often contain small patios. Most homes don't have garages, but some have carports, and for the rest, the street is roomy enough for parking. Sidewalks are abundant and lead to nearby restaurants and parks. Prices range from $235,000 for 1,100 square feet to $410,000 for 1,500 square feet.

Locals get fresh air and exercise at nearby parks
Residents have many places to go when they want to get outside. Nearby Daffin Park is a favorite for many in the area for its many amenities, like the playground and dog park. It's also a hotspot for local sports, as city leagues use its athletic fields for games in the spring and fall. There are also several pocket parks in and around the neighborhood that residents visit when they want to stay closer to home. The West 53rd and Barnard Streets Park sits in the neighborhood’s southern end and offers a tranquil place to sit in the shade of one of its many tall trees and chat with a neighbor or enjoy a good book.Students are served by the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System
The Savannah-Chatham County Public School System serves Bingville, and kids usually start school at Hodge Elementary School, then head to DeReene Middle School and Beach High School. DeReene Middle has a C-minus on Niche, and both Beach High and Hodge Elementary have C ratings. Beach High School serves about 900 students and has a student-teacher ratio of 15-to-1. It offers learning programs for students at all levels, including an accelerated program where students can earn college credit while still in high school and various special education programs for students with behavioral, learning and intellectual disabilities. Families considering private education for their children have multiple nearby faith-based and preparatory schools to choose from.

SCAD students get colorful with chalk
The city offers many popular annual events, including the Savannah Irish Festival and the Savannah Black Heritage Festival. The Savannah College of Arts and Design (SCAD) also hosts events throughout the year, including its Film Festival, which draws residents and celebs alike, and its Sidewalk Arts Festival, where SCAD students, alums, and local high school students turn the sidewalks in Forsyth Park into a landscape of chalk drawings. “It’s very cool to see all the different skill levels being represented, and it's an overall good time," Martin says.Residents bike and use CAT busses to get around
To get around, locals take Route 80, which runs along the neighborhood's north side to Interstate 516, which connects to other major thoroughfares running north to South Carolina and deeper into Georgia. Those navigating the city using public transportation can pick up the Chatham Area Transit (CAT) bus at one of its stops along Barnard Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.

Head to Abercorn Street and Starland District for shopping
While shopping is limited within the neighborhood, residents have many options close by for weekly errands. They head south to the shops near Abercorn Street and West DeRenne Avenue to pick up groceries at Publix or Fresh Market and get everything else they need at Family Dollar, located off Montgomery Street within walking distance of most homes. For dining, residents have their pick from many nearby locally-owned restaurants. Island Breeze is a favorite for its authentic Jamaican dishes like Akee and Salt Fish and Curry Goat, and just a few blocks north, restaurants offer Japanese, Chinese, and Venezuelan cuisines.
