Enviable location, up-and-coming vibe

Just 4 miles south of downtown and a little more than 5 miles north of Southside, Tatemville’s appeal lies in its location. “It’s close to Interstate 516, so it’s centrally located. Just zipping around from here, you can get downtown really quick, you can get to Southside really quick, you can get to Pooler really quick, so the location is the best thing about it,” says David Thomas, a Realtor with Doris Thomas Realty with nearly 20 years of local experience. His office is in Tatemville, off Montgomery Street on the neighborhood’s east side. Tatemville’s convenient location may be the reason for its growing popularity. “It’s transitioning and a hot neighborhood,” says Realty One Group Inclusion Realtor Kathleen Linzey. “It’s in the middle of a bunch of other neighborhoods and accessible to bus lines,” she says, adding that its up-and-coming atmosphere, in combination with the amenities that come with its place in Savannah, “make houses in Tatemville a good investment.”

Competitive home prices

Modest 1920s and ‘30s bungalows and midcentury ranch-style homes line the streets here, shaded by towering oak and pine trees. Many have low chain-link fences surrounding small front yards. “There are some older homeowners, but for the most part it’s renters,” says Thomas. “There’s revitalization in the area, people are redoing the houses. And it’s maybe half and half, investors and homeowners; some are investors, and some are homeowners,” he says. One of Thomas’s recent Tatemville listings sold for $175,000, which he says is on the lower end of the price spectrum for the neighborhood. “Homes go for anywhere between $175,000 and $250,000,” he says. That’s well under the median for Savannah, which hovers closer to the $325,000 mark.

Savannah-Chatham County schools

Local kids attend schools in the Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools system. Between kindergarten and eighth grade, many go to Haven Elementary and Myers Middle, both of which earned C-minus grades from Niche in 2024. Older students go to Beach High, which earned a C. Beach High is one of three schools in the district to offer a Medical and Allied Health magnet program. Teens from across the two counties can apply to participate in the program and attend the school regardless of their home address.

Planes, cars and buses, oh my

Interstate 516 curves around the south and west sides of Tatemville. The Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport is less than 14 miles northwest, a drive that takes under half an hour via I-516. Stops along Chatham Area Transit, or CAT, bus lines are within easy reach of most homes, evenly spaced on main thoroughfares like Staley Avenue and Montgomery Street. There are two hospitals close to the neighborhood, too: Candler Hospital and Memorial Health University Medical Center, both within 2.5 miles of Tatemville.

Shopping and dining galore

On either side of Abercorn Street, within 2 miles of most homes, there’s everything from popular clothing retailers like J. Crew Factory and Jos A. Bank to grocery stores like Publix and The Fresh Market. For a bite to eat, head to Five Guys, Bonefish Grill or Oak 36 Bar & Kitchen. There’s even a Cold Stone Creamery for satiating sweet tooth cravings. At Donna’s Delicious Delites, locals enjoy all kinds of scratch-made baked goods and soul food. The eatery is even closer to home than the food options on Abercorn, off Montgomery Street on the neighborhood’s east side. And just a few blocks north, Kool Vibes Pizza & Wings serves up classic comfort food with a Jamaican twist. Between Donna’s and Kool Vibes, the main thoroughfare is lined with everything from barbershops and laundromats to convenience stores and auto shops.
