What makes Savannah cost less
A local move is crew hours, so the question is always what the housing here does to those hours. Historic District townhouses sit above garden levels behind exterior stairs, the squares force one-way loops that lengthen every approach, and trucks routinely park a block from the door and carry.
Net of all that, Savannah prices 5% below the national average. The same 2-bedroom local move that typically costs $1,075 nationally runs $1,025 in Savannah, a difference of $50 less.
