Plenty of fun bars. The clubs are where you got to get shot or stabbed.

Popping in to vouch for u/GrayRVA's work - so lovely and high quality.

If you move there you will be looking for a new place to live when your lease is up. Ashland is cute, but you want to be near the city because that's where you will spend most of your time. The last thing you want to do on a Fri or Sat night is realize you have a 25 minute drive home. There are much better places for you, at your age, to live.

Reply to comment by CRothg in Del. Lamont Bagby receives Democratic nomination in SD-09 by Mad-Lad-of-RVA
Alexsis Rodgers was basically running on a vague pro-labor/Dominion sucks platform. So if IBEW666 is endorsing Lamont Bagby, I feel like Bagby knew he didn’t need to sweat this election very much.

Yeah we gave up after the 7th offer went like this, interest rates ballooned even more now so it’s just back to waiting and stockpiling cash for us. And another year of rent….wooo….

Everything you listed involves leaving Ashland

Oh nice thanks. Roger's Richmond loss is more on the line of what I was expecting

Reply to comment by 10698 in Are two water heaters required for a duplex that's being rented? by Grumgar
A lot of water heaters have 2 heat elements, one up high and one down low. If one of these is burned out it would result in a short life for hot water. -courtesy of my THIS OLD HOUSE addiction.

I live in a 12 unit building with 1 waterheater to supply everyone. It is a huge industrial one from the 1920s..and it works almost top well.

I wish the down voters would explain to the rest of us how young people would meet other young people in Ashland outside of the college scene.
I live near VCC and there's no singles scene here (under 40yo) and a lot more people.

If you need to interview someone that’s extremely satisfied with their landlord… let me know.

15 minutes will get you to Henrico, but it's 21 min to SA and 25 min to Carytown from RMU.

Agree on the drive time. I live in the town of Ashland and work downtown RVA. It’s 25 minutes in peak traffic, 20 in light traffic. About once every six weeks there’s an accident bad enough to make it over 30.

that’s understandable. it’s a different case with people like my partner’s mom, who lives in the suburbs and genuinely can’t fathom why someone would want to live in the city when housing is cheaper in the suburbs.
then again, that may just be a mom thing.

We just don’t really care. Like I know it exists I just don’t want to be out of my house after 9 pm so it’s not a motivating factor for me, for example

You know Randolph Macon has more women students and professors than male right?

Talk to the landlord and tell them it doesn't ask long and ask if you can get a bigger one. No certainty but might work
