Review of Richmond, Virginia


DON'T MOVE HERE
Star Rating - 3/27/2008
I'VE LIVED HERE 2 TIMES DUE TO WORK AND BOTH TIMES IT HAS BEEN AWFUL.PEOPLE ARE SNOBISH. JOBS PAY POORLY. EVERTHING HAS A HIGH PRICE TAG,AND I MEAN EVERYTHING. EVEN EVENTS THAT ARE FREE IN THE VIRGINIA BEACH AREA- COST LOTS HERE! ROADS ARE IN TERRRBLE SHAPE. TOLLS ARE BEING INCREASED. CRIME IS TERRIBLE. HUMID IN SUMMER. FREEZING IN THE WINTER. IT HAS A LOT TO DO- AS LONG AS YOU HAVE LOTS OF MONEY. ECONOMY COMES AND GOES -MOSTLLY GOES. LOTS OF DRS. AND HOSPITALS. TAXES ARE TERRIBLE. POLITICS ARE A ONE MAN SHOW. PLENTY OF RELIGIONS- BUT IT SEEMS TO BE MORE A WHO HAS THE BEST CLOTHES AFFAIR. MOVE SOMEWHERE ELSE IF YOU CAN-A I'LL BE HEADING TO FLORIDA TO RETIRE IN 10 YEARS-THANK GOODNESS! GOOD LUCK!
