5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child went to James K. Polk for 6 years and I was a student there as well. It is a wonderful environment where kids are taught to be good citizens and to put their best foot forward everyday! My child is now in a different school district and I am so shocked and disappointed at the lack of leadership within the staff and passion for education. We miss Polk and are so grateful for everything the provided!Parent Review4y ago - Alexandria City High School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAlexandria schools are bad. My son is LGBTQ and he likes it, but also knows it’s a really bad school. All the schools in Alexandria are overwhelmed with low income students whose parents have to work 2 jobs and can’t truly raise them or the other type who don’t work at all and get the government and taxpayers like us to pay for everything. Either way, the kids suffer. There are success stories. Plenty! But, if you think your kid may be subject to bullying or homophobia, transphobia, outcast, or you believe they truly have what it takes to graduate from college. Alexandria is a bad choice. The housing here is cheap. Private schools are double the national average for a reason. I work for a nonprofit and I do care about all people. Don’t make your kids go to Alexandria public schools because you don’t want to drive 30-45 minutes to work. Your kids need to come firstParent Review1mo ago

"Nice community with nice neighbors and easy accessible resources. Love the area also due to the Highway that connects north to my house "

"Lots of open space, friendly neighbors and LOTS of dogs (and kids)! People look out for one another and their dogs. The sidewalks are generally good but it does get hot on the tarmac. These are nits. Great hood!"

"Sense of community and a quiet neighborhood just steps away from all the great things Alexandria has to offer. It is eclectic, diverse and full of people who want to see the neighborhood thrive. "
- Trulia User
- Resident
- 2y ago
"Lots of open grass areas within walking distance and all well lit and frequented by many locals makes it a safe and convenient neighborhood for dog owners. Most properties including townhomes in this area also include fenced-in backyards which provide relief during the day or while away; most townhome communities also have common grassy areas for homeowners to use."

"Neighbors are fantastic. Never imagined I would live next to people so handy and thoughtful. Feel welcomed. "

"Dog friendly area specially in the small townhouses but not the big buildings . I highly recommend this area for small dogs only"

"I have lived on Ivanhoe Street for about 20 years. It is a quite, dead-end street of about 30 houses. The homes were built in the early 1960s. Most have brick exteriors, and are well-constructed. Neighbors are friendly, and there now is some "generational shift" in ownership (i.e., from long-time owners who are 60-90 to younger families and couples)."

"Moved to the neighborhood about a year ago. Wish there was a nearby dog park but besides that, quiet and friendly people. "
- Meridith M.

"Good central location and lots of amenities. People are friendly enough but don’t expect to know most of your neighbors."
- Mic

"We've lived in this neighborhood for more than 17 years. Neighbors are friendly, many conversations to be had walking your dogs or strolling through the tree-lined streets. Easy access to parks with walking and bike trails, DASH bus stops throughout, farmer's market, libraries, schools, shopping centers, and the dog park are all an easy walk. The babies when we moved in are all graduating now and there have been young families moving in again as houses become available. It is a vibrant, friendly community with passionate, active members. The local schools are truly special. Although the population is diverse, all come together and support one another. We love this neighborhood!"

- Heather L.

"I have lived in the Plaza for close to six years. It’s a great place that many do not know about. There is a court yard with a garden - park like setting. It’s peaceful and the people are friendly. I have walked and done runs at night. I feel safe here."
