My future husband and I are contemplating a move to the VB area... We are both young 30s looking to start and raise a family within the next year or two. Can anyone recommend neighborhood/cities etc to avoid and cities we should look into? A safe neighborhood with good schools is a must. Thanks!

Live and work on the same side of the Harbor/James River. The Bridge-Tunnels are totally unreliable for a smooth commute.

Each city does its own thing, and each city has their good neighborhoods and their bad neighborhoods. Depends on what you're looking for! Give us some specs.

We want to find a place that is no more than a 45 minute commute to VB. I don't want the hustle and bustle of a major city. (that's why we are leaving NY) but would like to be close enough to some night life. We want a good family neighborhood, a house ($350k max) that has some property. I don't want to be right on to of my neighbor. I'm not really sure what else to else. Does that help?
