People who have lived here a year or five years are not locals. Q: How many Richmonders does it take to change a lightbulb? A. Four. One to change the bulb and three to talk about how good the old one was.
Fair point...but I find that the most recent RVA transplants often have the most interesting insights, since everything is new to them. Great joke about changing the lightbulb!
Maymont is beautiful! The "West End" is not clearly defined...some people refer to the western side of Richmond City as the "Near West End" and the portion of Henrico County between Richmond City and the Goochland County line as the "Far West End."
I get it! I'm fortunate that I don't experience too much in my neighborhood, but crime is a real issue that Richmond will have to keep taking seriously.
RichmondVa is absolutely stunning. Gorgeous.

You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it. I had fun recording this one.

Very informative videos Greg.

I wished we lived near maymount. What is that area considered, the west end?
That's out in Henrico...you have to go out Broad St. past Staples Mill Road.

Richmond is southern AF!! Especially the east end. LMAO
Maybe I said this in the video, but I've heard Richmond described as the northernmost southern city and the southernmost northern city...
The CRIME - I hate the crime !

I don't like Richmond's mayor either.
Alot of us rather live in NOVA but cant afford it, lol.
I was personally happy to leave the DMV, but it obviously offers things that Richmond never will.
