Great place to live.....except for schools.

I've read a few comments about the Hampton Roads area as a whole saying what a horrible place it is to live. I grew up in central NJ and I disagree. Yes....the cost of living has increased here. But it if you are moving here from the Northeast....it is extremely inexpensive. I love the Churchland area. Our neighborhood has an abundance of kids, which is wonderful. And the neighbors look out for each other. I have never lived somewhere that was so friendly. The only downfall are the schools, but that seems to be a complaint everywhere. They aren't that great...but they aren't horrible either.
