Someone told me that the Glenn Allen area was probably the best choice. It would be wonderful if people would give me some good advise. Thank you.

Yes Glen Allen is nice, but they also have homes located near the new mall, I think it's called Short Pump area they have great safe areas over that way. Close to the highways and lots of resurants.

Everyone who has posted has given excellent locations.You need to visit the areas and think about your commute plus school districts.

We lived in Glen Allen zip code 23059 and loved it. Even though it was a tight planned community we all adjusted. We had moved from NY and had an acre of property.

Our daughter was starting high school. She went to Deep Run and excelled.

We have been relocated again after 4 years. Our kids have remained in the short pump area-we can't wait to move back!
