Yahoo! fails to mention that Money magazine proclaimed Norfolk as the number one city in which to live in the South in 1999 and 2005, and Planning Magazine has recognized downtown Norfolk for its resurgence in downtown residents and its redevelopment. The waterfront and the rest of downtown are fantastic and leave visitors that read reviews such as ...

My car was broken in there parking lot. They say it was at our risk. We were not aware of the car until 1:00pm on Friday. No one took the time out to see whose car that was. We made a trip to Virginia and came out with a $500.00 bill for the deductible. They don't have a camera on site to protect the cars or visible security. The other car that ...

Shallow, Boring, Rude; these are the things I think of when someone says Norfolk. It is not cheap to live here. The former military people not only have that blind republican attitude but the drive down wages because they collect their Uncle Sam pensions. Don't go. It is quite uneventful.

Architecture and Historic Preservation are big items in Virginia and especially Norfolk. All of the aesthetic ammenities seem to disappear when you get to know the people whom live there.
