Good place to live, especially for seniors - 8/29/2022
We moved to Mechanicsville a year ago and although I am originally from Maryland, we didn't know anything about this area. We are retired and like the area. We chose Mechanicsville for the home prices. And what we got was a wonderful quiet, walkable friendly neighborhood. It is in the middle of Amish country so you have a lot of fresh produce in the summer. It has a pier and a lake which is good for my husband who loves to fish. The area has beautiful bike trails and walking paths. You have to drive at least 15-20 minutes for a grocery store, but that's ok. There are a lot of doctors, dentists, etc. within a short distance. The library is close and a senior center. California is the best area for shopping and has a lot of restaurants and close to the Naval base. As far as we tell know crime is low in Mechanicsville. The biggest problem we notice is people speed a lot because of the open roads. It isn't very diverse. There is also a very nice jazz festival each year.
