It has been amazing and a great change, I am looking forward to my future here!
I would love to see more officers patrolling, I believe it will help many people feel safe and stop a lot of the crime that is being committed. The traffic is not that great but with all the military people commuting, it really is not something we can do about it but if there is a way to improve this it would be wonderful to see.
There are many pot holes that should be fixed especially near schools. I love the different types of food they have available. The diversity is very good, something that I have never seen before.

Norfolk is a great blend of a Southern city, with an urban flair and a little bit of the beach life! It was actually ranked the No. 1 place to visit in a very popular tourist magazine last year. With great scenery, food, beaches, and nightlife it is the perfect place to settle down. There's something do for everyone, especially those with families. Norfolk has a good blend of everything, with just the right touch of Southern Comfort to make anyone feel at home!
Norfolk will always have a special place in my heart! During the four years that I spent living in this city, I watched Norfolk evolve into an artistic and fun-loving environment. One can appreciate the subtle beauty of the city's vintage architecture during the day, and look forward to the fun, quirky, and free-spirited nature that Granby Street's night life has to offer!
