If you’re planning a move to the CSRA (Central Savannah River Area), you’ve probably asked yourself: Where should I live—Augusta, Evans, or Grovetown? Each has its own unique vibe, lifestyle, and advantages, and the right choice really depends on your priorities. Let’s break it down:

 

 

Augusta: Historic Charm Meets City Living

 

Augusta is known for its rich history, the Masters Tournament, and its lively downtown scene. If you’re someone who enjoys culture, arts, and easy access to restaurants, entertainment, and hospitals, Augusta might be the perfect fit.

 

Why choose Augusta?

  • Affordable housing options compared to other cities

  • Close to Augusta University & Augusta Medical District

  • Access to downtown dining, Riverwalk, and events

  • Great for those who want the feel of city life without the cost of larger metros

     

Evans: Suburban Comfort & Top Schools

 

Evans has been ranked one of the best places to live in Georgia—and for good reason. It’s a suburban community with a family-friendly atmosphere, excellent schools, and plenty of parks and recreational activities.

 

Why choose Evans?

  • Top-rated Columbia County schools

  • Safe neighborhoods with a suburban feel

  • Shopping centers, parks, and family activities nearby

  • Ideal for families looking for stability and community

Grovetown: Growing & Convenient

 

Grovetown has exploded in growth over the last decade, becoming a hotspot for military families and anyone wanting a newer home at a great value. Located near Fort Eisenhower (formerly Fort Gordon), Grovetown combines convenience with affordability.

 

Why choose Grovetown?

  • Close to Fort Eisenhower & I-20 for easy commuting

  • New construction homes at competitive prices

  • Strong community feel with rapid growth and development

  • Perfect for first-time buyers or anyone looking for modern living at a lower cost

Which one is right for you?

  • Love city living and history? 👉 Augusta

  • Want top schools and family-friendly neighborhoods? 👉 Evans

  • Looking for new construction and convenience? 👉 Grovetown

     

No matter which area you choose, the CSRA offers a great mix of affordability, opportunity, and Southern charm.
