Ever since I moved here, I have stopped worrying about dangerous activities ensuing in the environment. The crime rate here is low an unfrequent. I moved from West Virginia, where drug activities are substantially higher. In Virginia, the police have a stronger authority and are generally more respected for doing their jobs properly. It is overall peaceful and more active, as the first thing I noticed was the amount of people jogging and playing outdoors. The citizens are friendly, and potential crime threats are minimum.
Review McNair
There are numerous good quality neighborhoods, but there are a few inadequate housing. The cost of living in this area is higher than average, but the quality in return compensates the price.
The area is diverse, therefore people are extremely tolerant. The community is very interactive, and supportive of one another.
