Spot on with putting traffic #1. I live in Maryland and have family in Fredericksburg. It’s typically a nightmare going to and from there. And I have many memories of coming back from Carolina beach trips on a Saturday night… and hitting the massive truck-filled backups.
Hello I'm thinking about moving from Maryland/DC area to Virginia. I figure it can't be worse. However, I just don't know. I work fully remote at home now so I think that is a plus. 🤔
Thank you for making me laugh this morning when you said, “I figure it can’t be worse.” lol my personal opinion is that you’ll like it a good bit more here. With that being said, how can we help? What information can help you evaluate your decision?
I moved to The Burg (Spotsylvania side) 25 years ago from Long Island and never looked back. The ONLY thing I miss about the island was you were never more than 10 minutes from the water at any given location. Other than that, The Burg is a phenomenal place to live and raise a family.
I live in Maryland (Germantown) and visit family in Virginia (Manassas and Fredericksburg). The Virginia traffic is much worse. Going to/from Fredericksburg is a nightmare - always during the week and very often on weekends too. 95 from Springfield to Fredericksburg… ugh.
I hear crime rate rating in fredericksburg is F. Can someone help me understand this? Is this worriesome? Which area to stay away if wanting to buy a house.
Virginia is humid subtropical. This means hot summers, mild winters, and moderate rainfall year-round. Summers are hot and humid with highs averaging around 90 degrees in June, July and August. Average lows during those same months is around 60 degrees. Virginia receives 44 inches of rain annually, and it seems the weather is always changing. I hope that helps a bit
Freddie Burg used to be a nice little Southern town, but thanks to the garbage coming down from DC, there are too many people in the area now, and it’s too built up.

Why do you want to move from Maryland??

My husband and I are thinking about moving from California to Fredericksburg. It's actually better weather and would be cheaper for us LOL.
Hot and humid but with a reasonable amount of tree canopy throughout the downtown area. It helps some. 😉
This is truth
There are way too many people here now🙄
There certainly are a whole lot of people here :)
Too many to even fathom. You see much more on them on major holidays, especially, like Veteran's Day. @@wheretoliveFredericksburg

I am away from a computer for a while, but when I get back I will address this and share some resources with you.
Any updates?
How is the summer there?

It’s gross. It’s humid and frequently has a “real feel” of 100 or more bc of the humidity.
Absolutely right about the feels like temperature often being over 100

I ❤Virginia and everything about it
You can keep it..
I've lived in N. Va my whole life.
A LOT of people fall in love with Virginia!
Born and raised in Arlington
Now at 61 years old I am considering moving to the Delaware shore
Less congestion
Less crime
More beach 🏝️
