Review of Charlottesville, Virginia


Charlottesville is amazing but expensive
Star Rating - 3/8/2010
Charlottesville is your typical university town - only with a few extras. We have the academic cultural items, plus a art scene. The bar and nightlife are beginning to finally show signs of life besides just places for college students. The area has amazing natural beauty and lots to do out of doors... so why am I leaving? - As young professional starting out, the real estate prices and lack of affordable housing are forcing me out of the area.
