@@christucker3413 Thanks for your feedback and you are correct however, I only named the larger, more recognized schools in Richmond. The goal of my videos is to attract buyers who may be looking to relocate to the area, VCU and U of R are both D-1 and play sports on a national level therefore would be easily recognized by people in other states/cities. I also didn't name Strayer, Brightpoint, J. Sarge, Fortis, ECPI, etc. I also didn't mention all the schools, all the festivals, all the restaurants, all the museums, etc... If I mentioned all that then the video would be 45 min long. Did you attend Virginia Union?

Nothing "big city" about RVA. Quite the opposite. No nightlife (what he references as nightlife are small and gross dive bars in the fan), attractions, or big city vibes. The museums are ok, but how many times can you frequent them before they get old? Small DT. Horrible city planning, bad public transportation. Lol "walkable" - You definitely need a car here - also search news articles about how people are run over by busses and cars. RVA is one of the least walk-able cities due to lots of two way streets. Ride through the city downtown and you may see a couple of people, the opposite of major cities - no vibrancy. Extremely high housing and rent prices as seen in the video. Not enough high paying jobs and companies to justify it. You can live in a much better city for equal or less. Flights in and out of RVA are EXPENSIVE since you have to make one or two connections to get anywhere. Moved here from New Orleans in 2005 bc of Katrina, went to VCU, graduated and left. Family is still there, speaking from experience. Only good thing about RVA is the food scene, lots of restaurants. Decent city if you have small kids and a growing family, though that being the case, I would want to live in the west-end "short pump" - 25 min outside of downtown. Wouldn't bring my kids dt unless it's day light and only to Cary Town, Browns/Belle Island, by the river near the Boat House, or Maymont Park. Broad Street, the bottom, and most areas are quite sketchy if you ask me. Scotts Addition may be a shining light and your best shot if you're young but prepare for $2500 one bedroom apartments - you can live in a first class city for that. Sorry to put the truth out there Scott.

Thanks for your feedback, it is greatly appreciated! There were ALOT of suburbs of Richmond that weren't covered in this video however, I didn't intend to cover all of them for the sake of not having a one hour video. This one was specifically catered to the areas that I spoke about and for people who may be looking to relocate here and have never been to the Richmond area. Chesterfield is a large part of the area that I cover and I have numerous clients who live there so that was my main focus. I'm consistently making videos so that I can cover various areas so just because it wasn't covered here doesn't mean that it won't be covered in another upcoming video. Thanks for tuning in and hopefully I can make some videos in the future that will suit your needs... Take care!

Thanks for your comment... If you're from Seattle then you are definitely familiar with HIGH priced real estate! My Admin is from there and has been an agent for 20+ so we've had alot of conversations about the real estate market there. Richmond is a small city with a big city vibe and comparatively speaking, it's much less than other nearby cities such as DC, VA Beach, Philadelphia, New Jersey, New York, etc. If you're considering the move here then maybe you should consider some of the suburbs such as Chesterfield, Henrico, Midlothian, etc. I have a few videos: The Highlands, Brandermill, Woodlake, and Chester that highlight those areas and may interest you.
