What's it really like living in Stony Point?
Longtime lurker here, I've been here for 11 years and You can expect to pay around $1,696 for rent here. Crime rate is something to consider -Stony Point sits at 224.2 per 100K. The unemployment rate is 3.7%, which is pretty low. Homes are going for about $472,600 on average. Poverty rate is 1.3%, which is pretty low. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. The food scene here is surprisingly good.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Close to nature
- Lots of new development
Cons:
- Cold winters
- Sprawl everywhere
- Boring for young people
- Not enough green space
