Richmond Hill
A quiet suburb of Savannah, Richmond Hill has an unusual history as it served as the winter home of auto magnate Henry Ford from the 1920s until his death in 1947. During those two decades, Ford transformed Ways Station, the town’s original name, from a small village into a thriving community. He employed much of the town’s population in lumber, agriculture, and building projects; constructed housing and schools; improved roads; and built what is now Ft. McAllister State Park. In recognition of Ford’s influence, the town became known as Richmond Hill, after the name of Ford’s estate. In the 1970s, as growth from Savannah began to spread outwards, subdivisions began springing up in the town. Today, Richmond Hill is about a half hour drive from Savannah, making it a popular place to live. Ford fell in love with the beautiful area immediately—move to Richmond Hill and you’ll understand why.
