Review of Winchester, Virginia


Little ole Winchester no more...
Star Rating - 6/18/2008
Born and Raised in Winchester, I've seen it all! From the small quaint little town where kids played on the streets until dark, no fear of crime or violence. The simple living indeed, but no nightlife unless you were a child. I've seen the town run by "old money, and old families" no room for new and brighter..Apple Blossom was huge as a child, now it's only a pain...no decent floats, no decent bands...same old politics, same old faces...please how many times do Winchester folk need to see Lenny M????? Who cares!

Winchester needs new blood and new life, stop building the homes, stop building malls and shopping..traffic is so bad, for such a small town.. There isn't any room left! Beautiful stone homes, orchards, farms torn down to make room for more houses, more traffic and more malls and shopping..With the unnecessary growth, came more costs to the citizens.

Did anyone care to ask the people who have lived here all their life what they wanted?? Nope... It's a shame, for I used to love living here..If I wanted noices, traffic, high costs of taxes, etc..I'd move to the city! I want my small quaint little town back...
