Rocky Mount #10 Best Places to Live in Roanoke Area
Works Here: I moved from Maryland to Rocky Mount Va back in 2006, it was amazing to see how friendly people are. It is a slower pace of life, which I love. It is a small town, but for more restaurant variety, Roanoke is about a half hour away. I became involved with a good church, which became my new family. The secret here is to go with the flow and treat others with respect, it has allowed me to be accepted in the town. The Harvester Performance Center really helped build the community, there is a lot of pride in that fine little town. Add to that the festivals and special family events! Neighbors help neighbors here, something hard to find in densely populated areas. Working on air locally has also helped my family become part of a great community. Might I add that very good medical care is in town, with advanced care not far away. Rocky Mount is a well run town, I highly recommend it!... Read 26 Reviews
