Alexandria and the surrounding area have really grown over the past few years. New subdivisions seem to be popping up everywhere. The west side of town is especially booming. The economy is doing great. I don't see the growth slowing down any time soon. Many schools are in bad shape, but some schools are decent. Health care is excellent. Some areas are clean and safe, while others are dirty and crime-ridden. Some might struggle with the hot, humid climate. Many might find the area to be boring, but there is plenty of outdoor recreation nearby.[read more...]
