    "It’s close to the river, quiet and a more house for the money. The location is central to downtown, the fan, short pump and the southside."
  • Meiningerv
    "Lots of trees, near the river and parks! Great people and dog walking! Occasionally, you’ll see deer!"
  • Michael D. a.
    "Quiet, safe neighborhood near the city with lots of close outdoor activities! Really a hidden gem in Richmond."
  • Marianne V.
    "This is a great area to live: you can be almost anywhere in the Richmond metro region in 20-25 minutes max. Close to downtown with minimal commuting hassle, walking distance to the river, Pony Pasture, and other city favorite haunts. Friendly neighbors, great restaurants, plenty of shopping options. "

    "Lots of motorcycles and weekend fishing families of 8-10 on property leaving trash etc"

    "Minutes walk to the river, quick access to highways and all areas of the city, nice neighbors etc.. The only downside and it's a biggy is the city schools. They're mediocre at best and if you plan to live here plan to shell out some extra dollars to send your kids to better schools. Like so many before us we'll probably end up moving before our kids hit school age, which explains the seeming absence of school age children in the neighborhood. That for some though might be a plus."

    "Fantastic safe neighborhood with active Neighborhood watch program. Walking distance to James River and Park. Walking distance to bus line, grocery, nightlife and shops of all sorts. 4 streets towards James River from Forest Hill and right between Powhite and Chippenham Parkways. Very established and desirable area."
  • Whit W.
    "This area and specific neighborhood of Stratford Hills is one of Richmond's most popular and undoubtedly one of its most unique and beautiful areas. There are miles of walking trails and parks for exploring right along the historic James River. You'll see kayakers and other small boats using the river all year long. There is flat water and roaring rapids. The fishing is excellent for many species (and some grow up to 50 pounds!) This location is literally just minutes (5) to some of Richmond's most iconic shopping areas, gourmet and family restaurants, clubs, and even the expressway and interstate systems yet tucked away in quiet, wooded settings of homes on large lots and interesting, rolling terrain. It's a great place to live with wonderful, friendly neighbors. Make sure you check it out for yourself and you'll most probably agree!"

    "I have worked in this area for the past year and found the neighborhood and neighbors to be friendly, and open. Everyone seems to enjoy walking the wooded streets and genuinely care about each other and look out for each other."
