Affordable areas near Richmond?
Alright, Should I be concerned? There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 6 years ago from Raleigh and here's my honest breakdown:
Housing: Older homes are where the value is. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in North. It's improving for what you get.
Jobs: The market is stable right now, especially in retail. If you're in hospitality you might struggle.
People: Generally excellent. It took about 10 months to build a solid friend group.
Food: average. Tons of options if you like BBQ.
Feel free to reach out with questions..

Bought a house here in 2024 and it's exactly what I was looking for. Property values have gone up significantly since then.
