Pooler has gone from a small town to one of Coastal Georgia's most in-demand suburbs in about two decades, and for good reason.
Twenty years ago Pooler had around 6,000 residents. Today it is closer to 29,500, driven by major employers and a steady wave of new construction. Gulfstream Aerospace builds business jets just minutes away, the Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport is right next door, and a new Hyundai manufacturing presence has added even more momentum to the west-Chatham job market.
For buyers, that growth means choice. Pooler offers everything from affordable single-family homes and townhomes to amenity-rich master-planned communities and gated golf estates. New-construction subdivisions are some of the most active in the region, so move-in-ready and to-be-built options are usually on the table alongside resale homes. The typical Pooler home has recently sold in the low-to-mid $300,000s, with newer amenity homes often from the high $300,000s into the $400,000s.
Add Tanger Outlets Savannah (90-plus stores), the Pooler Parkway dining-and-entertainment corridor, and a quick hop to downtown Savannah and the beaches, and it is easy to see why relocating families, professionals, and military buyers from Hunter Army Airfield keep choosing Pooler.

Is Pooler, GA a good place to live?
Many buyers think so. Pooler is one of the Savannah area's fastest-growing suburbs, with new construction, family-friendly neighborhoods, strong employers like Gulfstream, major shopping at Tanger Outlets, parks, and an easy 15-minute drive to downtown Savannah.
What schools serve Pooler?
Pooler is part of the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, including Pooler Elementary and Pooler Middle, with new schools opening to keep up with growth. Attendance zones can change, so always confirm the exact school zone for a specific address.
How far is Pooler from Savannah, Gulfstream, and the airport?
It's about 15 minutes to downtown Savannah via I-16, roughly 10 minutes to Gulfstream Aerospace and the Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport, about 20 minutes to the Historic District, and around 35 minutes to Tybee Island.
Does Pooler have new-construction homes?
Yes. Pooler is one of the most active new-construction markets in the Savannah area, with communities like Savannah Quarters, Forest Lakes, Godley Station, Harmony, and Highland Falls offering single-family homes, townhomes, and golf or gated estates, both move-in-ready and to-be-built.
How does Pooler compare to living in-town in Savannah?
Pooler offers newer homes, more space, and planned-community amenities, usually at a stronger price-per-square-foot than the historic in-town neighborhoods. The trade-off is more driving and less walkability than downtown Savannah, so it tends to suit buyers who value layout, value, and an easy commute over walk-everywhere living.
Is Pooler good for families and military buyers?
Yes. Families are drawn to the schools, parks, splash pad, and newer homes, and Pooler is popular with Hunter Army Airfield service members for the short commute, new construction, and VA-loan-friendly options. ARC is veteran-owned and VA-loan experienced.
Do I need flood insurance in Pooler?
It depends on the property. Much of Pooler sits inland on higher ground than the coastal islands, but parts of Chatham County fall in FEMA flood zones where lenders require flood insurance. Always check the FEMA flood map and the elevation for the specific home.
