"Central to everywhere"

Glenwood's a great neighborhood and a good commute to all the area bases. We've lived here for 13 years and have commuted to bases in VA Beach, Norfolk and Portsmouth. The schools are very good, there are parks throughout and there's shopping nearby. The neighbors are wonderful and that's part of the reason we've stayed, even doing geo-bachelor tours to stay in our home. After many military moves we have a home.

Pros Cons
  1. Lots of sidewalks, great for running & walking
  2. Lots of kids and parks for them
  3. Friendly neighbors
  4. Most people here are active duty, retired or have a military connection
  1. HOA could be better

Price: $250-$400k
