Savannah routinely earns high marks on lists of America's most beautiful cities, but a new magazine survey is focusing on a more specific aspect of Savannah's beauty: its people.
Readers of Travel + Leisure have ranked Savannah one of America's "hottest" cities -- and not based on temperature. The Hostess City comes in at No. 8 on a list of cities with the best-looking residents. Charleston, S.C., came in fourth.
"If these Georgians ever said anything unattractive or rude, voters might not even notice, so blinded were they by the top-ranked local drawl," the magazine told CNN.com. "Voters were also charmed by these Southerners' willingness to indulge themselves: the handsome city ranked No. 3 for its happy hour, and No. 1 for ice cream parlors."
It may help that Savannah is home to one of the top fashion schools in the country -- the Savannah College of Art and Design -- and was selected by fashion retailer Express as the background for its latest international marketing campaign.
