Review of Lynchburg, Virginia


Lynchburg
Star Rating - 12/25/2012
I will make it simple for everyone to follow:

The good--plenty of places to eat for a smaller city, the mountains are nice, a handful of great people

The bad--most of the people I encountered are fake, there are politics where it concerns jobs (hidden, but can be found), crime is a bit high for this size city (being from NY, Lynchburg has more crime, pro-rated, than Ronkonkoma, LI, NY--where I grew up), weather is very erratic, economy is weak, but the prices are a bit higher than should be here (lies come when being asked)

To be fair, it is not the worst place in the world to raise a family, as long as you understand what comes with a small city (approx. 72,000 people)...
