    This area is great if you like to be near the action, but still feel like you're in a neighborhood. Lots of restaurants/cafes/bars nearby, and super easy to get downtown or to Virginia for work. This is typically where people move after graduating from local universities, so definitely a bit of a younger feel, but you also see lots of families.

    This historic District has beautiful townhouses built in the late 1800's. Many restaurants and shops can be found throughout the area.
    I love the acceptance of LGBTQIA individuals in this neighborhood. It's a very welcoming environment and allows for a true expression of oneself.
