Hi Amy,

I live in Roanoke County, not far from Halifax or Montgomery Co. I was born here many moons ago and although my DH and I love the beach I would be lost if I lived outside of these Blue Ridge Mountains. Both counties you you're considering are very nice but if I had to choose I would probably choose Montgomery Co. The mountains and hills are beautiful there and VA Tech is located there. There's lots of small little country roads and towns in the area that we love to visit especially at this time of year. If there's any specific questions you would like to know just e-mail me and I'd be happy to help. Good luck!

I'm in Yorktown, VA, if ya don't like the weather here, wait 10 minutes it will change, LOL.

Welcome to Virginia.

Hi Amy,

I live in SW Virginia and would not live anywhere else. As someone told me once "People in Virginia are lucky. If they want mountains they can have them. If they want the beach they can have it. If they want culture they can go to the cities. Virginians have the best of all four seasons." Of course I agreed with her immediately. I love small town VA and would not want it any other way. The song "I'm From the Country" describes it completely for me. Montgomery County is about 2 hours from me and has a lot of wonderful things available for everyone. Good luck with your move.
