Review of Winchester, Virginia


Quality of Life
Star Rating - 8/21/2014
I have lived in Winchester for about 40 years now. It is a very nice area in the Northern Shenandoah Valley. Our claims to fame would be the birthplace of Patsy Cline, The Apple Blossom Festival, MANY civil war battles, and the self-proclaimed "Apple Capital" of the world. Good schools. Only about an hour from northern virginia area and DC. We do have 4 seasons with humid summers and a good amount of snow in the winter. Great place to raise children. We have rivers, lakes and mountains!

I am a conservative white Christian and a renter. The homeowners , all white, on my block hate me because I have new ideas and they are stuck in the 1950s yet they have central air, cable TV, flat screen TV, Internet, 4 air conditioned cars including an SUV . None of those were present in the 1950s yet they hate me because I did not paint my odor black and white I used to remove their snow for free and they got mad because I would not take money yet they do the same thing and for free , yet I am told to stay off their land.They also hate me since I do not own a car .I sol;d my car because it was a dangerous lemon . One day which will not be too soon I will leave Winchester and wipe the dust off my feet forever
