I've lived here

[@fatherjay]

Born and raised there. I've been to all the tourist locations mentioned in the video. Its worth the trip to see, and sure not to disappoint.

[@OnViewCation]

Fun stuff, thanks for sharing! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?

[@CommonSenseIsntTooCommon]

Is it a nice place still? Why did you move?

[@fatherjay]

@@CommonSenseIsntTooCommon a job! I’m retiring there, and visit family quite often!

[@CommonSenseIsntTooCommon]

@@fatherjay im thinking of visiting there soon. Never visited Virginia before. My family is from pittsburgh. But i live in south florida. How are the people there?

[@fatherjay]

@@CommonSenseIsntTooCommon dowbtown, where most of the attractions and shopping stores are, the people are friendly/semi-friendly. Its a NAVY fown, so you get folks from all over.

We don't drink, we don't smoke, Norfolk!!

[@afzalhazan2816]

I wish I could move to Norfolk and start over

[@stevekuehnmd252]

My uncle, who was in the Navy and and an engineer, he used to say that all the time lol

[@babimurillo8035]

I lived there in 86 but I didn’t remember the town anymore. Great video

[@localnews4942]

05:42 - WOW, that's an old picture!! ... You can see the USS United States docked in the very top of the frame!! Nice.

[@bender7565]

I didn't see her but I loved seeing her a bunch when I went to the chicken joint at Terminal and Hampton. It was like no one knew she was there. There is a carrier that is gone now on the east side of pier 12 so it is old. Don't mean to be a dick but gray boats are USS, American civilian boats are SS.

[@localnews4942]

@@bender7565 You are correct!! I totally missed that. 😊

[@SylvieLocas-lf7nn]

I am going there soon

[@osamabinlagin477]

This is a cool video, I live in Norfolk, but quick note. The spirit of Norfolk burned down back in June.

[@OnViewCation]

Sad news, thank you so much for sharing! Which city/location would you like us to cover next?

[@osamabinlagin477]

@@OnViewCation Maybe something about Charleston, SC?

[@TsoLIt]

WAIT REALLY? WTF

[@joeboggio4002]

I enjoyed my time in Norfolk while I was stationed there. The only people who say it's bad just say it for the sake of it, or did not put the effort into the area. You get out of something what you put into it after all.

[@TrueRaz]

7:28 that picture of King Neptune is in Virginia Beach, not Norfolk.

[@seansean8698]

True, ocean view doesn’t have a boardwalk

[@haticegul3769]

👍

[@SamGouldsboro]

Sailors and dogs stay off the grass.

[@heatherkirk7657]

1: leave

[@OnViewCation]

May we ask why?

[@justinratcliffe947]

Shut up

[@justinratcliffe947]

​@@OnViewCation pay no attention he's an idiot

[@user-by2zl3vk5y]

Stay out of the streets and and pay no attention to the stop signs or speeder's 😮

[@OnViewCation]

Very interesting, thank you so much for the tip! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?

[@ThatBoyKin-]

I dont know man, where i live we see crime out our window so....norfolk at lease where i am is not a place you wanna visit

[@victoriahardin1560]

So, where is the best city in Hampton Roads to live? I'm considering moving there.

[@ThatBoyKin-]

@victoriahardin1560 without talking money and house prices I'd say shore drive near the strip, lived there for a good year and it was wonderful

[@whatevenisthisfor]

That town sucks 😅

[@OnViewCation]

May we ask why?

[@whatevenisthisfor]

@OnViewCation food sucks, roads suck, the people were really dingy and the boardwalk is boring. At night, the boardwalk goes from boring to violent and the lgbtq community was really rude. Big thumbs down to Norfolk VA. The cranes everywhere are ugly too. Actually Virginia beach and Norfolk get thumbs down they are the same place practically.

[@user-by2zl3vk5y]

​@@OnViewCationcheck out Ghent commons and see for yourself 😢

[@justinratcliffe947]

Shut up
