Statesboro is the proud home of Georgia Southern University but it is also a small town with incredibly low costs for its residents. Due to being a college town, there are all sorts of cultural events organized there and various cultural attractions such as a performing arts center, symphony, museum, planetarium and botanic gardens.
The main employer is the university, but the manufacturing industry also has an important role in the town’s development. With housing costs around 32 percent below the U.S. average and healthcare 14 percent cheaper, Statesboro is a budget-friendly town, with a family-friendly community.
Dental costs are also cheaper, according to the C2ER’s Cost of Living Index, which may be one of the reasons people seem to be smiling more in Statesboro.

When Donald Trump was our president, everything was great! Living was easy, no worries of war and gas was nice and low. The border was safe and was getting safer knowing a wall was being put up. Trump had men behind him that protected this country and we knew it. This president couldn't wait to stop the wall from being completed and he's letting in all the illegals good and bad. No one is safe because some are sick with disease and hundreds of thousands are coming from all different countries. He has to stop this! He's ruining our beautiful America. He wants to give them medicare and social security and insurance and yet our vets that fought for this country can't get help. He needs to go. Fairfield, Ct.
