Thank you for your reply. Is there any areas that we need to be aware of to stay away from.

I think you'd be fine most anywhere, really.

I suppose that if there were an issue, it would most likely be in rural areas, but in the Richmond metro in this day and age it would surprise me. Rural and rural type areas include:. Mechanicsville, 23112 Midlothian, Hanover, Powhatan, Amelia, Southern Chesterfield, and Goochland (though western Goochland is quite different).

I'm a white guy with a black wife and brown kids.

Living in Midlothian, never noticed any problems. I've got a pretty good spidey sense when it comes to people's feelings about our household's racial mix, so I'm pretty pleased with how things have gone for us in Chesterfield County. We've got some bi-racial couples as friends -- met them at the local Baptist church of all places.

You'll be fine in Glen Allen I imagine.

Glen Allen really has no "bad" areas, nothing unsafe really but north of woodman gets run down. Nobody will care that your interracial. Everybody lives here. My subdivision has White, Black, Asian, Mexican, Arabic you name it. We're all thrown in here and all good people. Western Henrico as a whole is a good place.

You definitely won't have issues in Glen Allen. I think it's a very welcoming place that you and your family will enjoy. It's a beautiful and peaceful (too quiet for me as I'm single) community.

You'll be fine. But if I may ask, why would you come here?

Honetly, I feel like much of Eastern Goochland (Manakin Farms/Sabot) is just really rich people who wouldn't care.
