Va Bch and all of Hampton Roads is full. Too many moved here and still moving here. Like heavy traffic and crazy drivers who run stop signs and red lights? Like expensive housing that is nowhere near the beach? Like roads that are not built on a grid, thus no roads to get around jams? Like high taxes?
That’s because Ben Davenport, a past Virginia Beach City Council member, said out loud during a city council meeting that he wants to see the city grow to a million residents. The rest of city council shared his sentiment too. This area can’t support or sustain a population that size. It doesn’t matter though. Their goal is to turn this entire area into a “Mega City” and force people out of their cars. The City’s SGA’s admit it in their documents. I’ve seen it with my own two eyes. The widening of I-64 to Richmond is part of that vision.
Don’t forget we have our own Hatfield/McCoys situation. This feud goes way back among 2 of the 5 families that control Virginia Beach and still continues to this very day! There’s also a lot of corruption that takes place within city council!

Exactly what it is. A friend worked at Kroger HQ and said Kroger PS was the same thing as HT house brand. There is a quality difference on some items.

Born and raised in Virginia, Chesapeake to be exact. Me and my wife left Va and went west, we moved back last year and bought a home and we are now regretting that decision. We also live in Va beach, my wife is from here. This isn’t the old 757, it’s a damn dump. No opportunities, business left or shut down. Not to mention the crime rate now. Also for some reason, construction on roads last for years! They have been “working” on Laskin road for 30 years now. 😂 Remodeling and getting ready to get out of here, again but for good!
Always good videos, Sam. Moved here Dec. 2019 from Texas and since then, moved twice to different locations w/in Va. bch.. Public schools here are rated high on-line, until you get your kids into those schools you'll know that they are overly rated and are mediocre at best. Va. bch. public school's transportation is poor, fails to inform parents of any delays/incidents/etc. leaving parents with worries/anxiety/run late/etc. and rarely answers the phone as well. Children's hospital like CHKD here is popular and have a long wait list for everything! And if your child/children require special health accomodations, expect to be waitlisted! This also pertains to childcare, expect to be wait listed! Housing is expensive and houses aren't pretty w/ thumb size yards. Duplexes and if you aren't lucky, you'll get neigbors who party all night, smoking weeds, blasting their music until 2-3 am, and not a care in the world. Expect parking lots anywhere smelling like marijuana smokes and some of your work colleagues coming in smelling like it too. Many people here are nicotine junkies too, so expect that. Many stores/businesses doesn't remain open at late hours. Many landlords here in Virginia beach tend not to care about cleaning the place before renting it out, which Remax told us happens alot because of high demand for a place to live in, so they never bother to clean up the places they rent out. Landlords tend to raise the rent every year. We own a couple of Subarus and dealerships here aren't as customer service friendly and doesn't accomodate with courtesy rides or car wash of any kind. Everything here in Virginia Beach is more expensive unless you shop for certain products like fruits/veggies at Aldi's (Aldi's here are tiny) or Lidl stores. Dog poops on the beach, esp. on the Va Bch. boardwalk it's like a huge dog litter. Sandbridge beach so many fish hooks and lines in/on the water/sands. Public transportation is also poor. Some Chinese restaurant doesn't offer cups and ice for your drinks, usually just bottle/can drinks. The gas prices are high, taxes eating out and shopping is high. The roads, omg, they are one of the ugliest we've encountered, which make us miss our Texas roads/highways even more. If you like bars, there's plenty of them around here, but no good dance clubs that offers variety of music. If you enjoy going on an NBA games, well, none here. We do love the beach, but we've loss so much in order to have it. The traffic is bad, expect that. The outdoors here in Va. beach is alright, but nicer up on the peninsula like around Williamsburg where is greener. 4 seasons we also appreciate. Racial tensions here are much higher too, with Blacks at work (other environments) being bullies towards anyone who isn't Black ruining moral in the company and turning it into toxic work environment. Truly sad, which we want nothing to be part of and never did.
Living in Virginia Beach has thus far been a TERRIBLE experience for me. People here are so rude and creepy. Not friendly at all. Stalking... Everyone is so rude and unprofessional. Sometimes I just gave up on ordering a pizza because people are so rude everywhere and I'm not that one. That's Virginia beach for ya... They hit you with thier Cars and keep on driving. See it all the time. Doesnt feel safe here at all.
Don't come here please, it's getting overwhelming and crime is on the uprise. Traffic is absolutely insane. Been here my whole life can't wait to leave.
I grew up in Hampton roads and have lived here most of my life. Don't come here, I've spent half of my life trying to leave this god forsaken place. I can't imagine anyone looking at income/violent crimes/property value stats from this area over the past 10 years and going: "that's where I want to live". Literally delusional, just look at the sex offender map, look at the crime heat map, look at the average rent / sqft map. Use your best judgment take this advice from a local to heart. Don't come here, there's only suffering on the horizon if you do.
Do you enjoy endless monotonous suburbia in all directions? Welcome to Virginia Beach, we've got it. Whether you want to spend your day going to Starbucks before a Target run, or prefer to stop by Caribou Coffee before a trip to Walmart, we've got it. We've even kept a Kmart on life support for you! Have you ever visited a city like Boston or San Francisco and thought, "gee, I love all these quaint old buildings but why don't they build an 8-lane highway through the middle of downtown?"Well, Virginia Beach has done it! We've go lanes, lanes, and more lanes! We've got I-264 dumping out right at the old downtown, and cutting right through the several fake downtowns we've attempted to build and promote over the years. Any time a pedestrian is spotted anywhere, we throw another lane onto Virginia Beach Boulevard until that pedestrian is scared back to DC or Berkeley or wherever pedestrians come from. Come to the city of a dozen Ruby Tuesdays, the city of a thousand Applebees. The city home to the magic 7-11 where you can stand in the parking lot and see THREE other 7-11s if no SUVs are obstructing your view. Best attempted at 3:00 a.m., cause we've got SUVs. Come to the city where vape shops and Halloween Superstores flicker in and out of existence in mesmerizing patterns, alongside their ephemerous sisters: the nails salons serving an army of HOA Karens taking a break from measuring your grass. Come visit our "historic" Oceanfront, Stop by the Cavalier and say a prayer for all the other local hotels that were systematically driven out of business to be replaced by chains. You can catch the "trolley" back to the Hyatt before continental breakfast is over. Visit any of our hundreds of corporate-owned restaurants pretending to be local. Does that menu look suspiciously familiar? Don't ask questions while they're trying to unload the Chipotle truck in the back of that super-authentic taquería. Shhh! Visit the site of old Dome on 19th street. Torn down 20 years ago to build... something yet to be determined. Something Yet to Be Determined has become a landmark all its own! And when you're done with all that, plan a day trip to Norfolk before the sea reclaims it!

You forgot to tell him to make sure he bearings a firearm at 2. 😂 There’s nothing “peachy” about the 757….

You just described every single metro area in the US. That’s nothing special about this area.
Moving Out Of Va Beach
Great video
Thank you!

Uhh what 5 families would this be?

Move back to texas
Critical social justice ideology DEI made racial tensions grow everywhere. It's Marxist and meant to divide us
I went on a hike in First Landing State Park for the first time on my birthday. It was nice.
I think it's super underrated. Love First Landing!
awesome informative video💯
Outstanding overview. Thank you!
Thank you!!!
Born and raised in VB 😊

They hit you with thier Cars and keep on driving. See it all the time. Doesnt feel safe here at all.
we need a place for a family of 2 adults and 1 toddler and 1 teenage / Homeschooling!! we needed ASAP. What is the best place or recommendation. TY
Pungo, it's country and easy access to all the cities. Chesapeake is good also depending on where in Chesapeake.
Not Virginia Beach. You’re better off in Chesapeake or Suffolk.
Don’t bring those kids to VA. 😂
Not a wise decision in today’s time..
Don't come here please, it's getting overwhelming and crime is on the uprise. Traffic is absolutely insane. Been here my whole life can't wait to leave.
Don't move here. The roads can't handle it. Wait thirty years
