The Area

Located in the southeastern section of Virginia, Virginia Beach is the most populated city in the state with numbers approaching 450,000.  The city is best known as a resort with it’s 38 miles of shoreline, 2 mile boardwalk, and hundreds of  “things to do” along the coast.  There are several state parks for hiking and exploring.  One of which is First Landing Park, formally known to the locals as Seashore State Park, with nearly 2900 acres of fun.  A few miles west you’ll find Mount Trashmore, which was originally a mountain of trash (imagine that!).  This behemoth was created decades ago and today is a great place to take the kids for flying kites or exercise.  It’s become a major staple of the city, looming over I-264 on your way to the beach.  The city is also listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the longest bridge-tunnel and pleasure beach in the world. 

Other main attractions include the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center, the Verizon Wireless Virginia Beach Amphitheater and the Town Center.  Established in 2002, the Virginia Beach Town Center (or Downtown Va. Beach) is a $300 million center which contains a number of hotels, shops, and restaurants.  It’s located on Virginia Beach Blvd. across from Pembroke Mall.

There are many great schools in the city including Cox High School, First Colonial High School, and Kempsville High School. Click the link below to view all the details of the areas schools. You can also visit one of our newest additions to the site to see school reviews and request homes that are for sale in a particular school district.
