    "Its proximity to the casino, golf course and community college. It’s 3 minutes away from the interstate."
  • Tommy J.
    "I've lived in South Loxley for 47 years, very nice established community, perfect for young couples with children and pets, very pleasant neighbors, very private, and feels very safe as compared to some areas of VA. Very sad to leave as I raised both of my daughters there, however I am retired, 84 and ready for a new chapter. "
  • Trulia User
    "My commute is straightforward and easy, little to no traffic around this area. I can make it to work in under 15 minutes. "

  • Blessingsrcoming7
    "Drugs, gun shots. This area needs upgrades. Too many houses not selling and too many condemned and reposed. Too many unrented. Portsmouth has the Highest repossessions in the state of VA! Too many are in this area."
  • ChesB30
    "I lived very close to this area for quite some time, and the area is beyond rough. High crime rate, and even the nearby shopping centers aren't the kind of place you feel comfortable going to alone or after dark. Drugs are extremely prevalent, especially heroin and crack cocaine. Lots of burglaries and destruction of property nearby. If I could urge anyone to NOT live in this area, I would do so. It's an unsafe neighborhood, and there are some CRAZY people in the area that it's better to simply avoid. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend this area for anyone."
