GLen Allen is a part of the Burbs. Laurel doesn't exist as much in real life as it does on the map - but still part of the burbs.

I have lived in Richmond for a little over a year. The traffic isn't too bad and many people continue to move to the outer edges. We decided to live in the city and we are glad. I can ride my bike to work and I like the city people, even thou I grew up in Montana.

The thing that got under my skin in Richmond was the stratefied social classes and the conformity. Of course, it is just a general feel and many people break out of it.

People are friendly, but in the southern way, if you know what I mean. I have made some friends.
