AviationTD 0 #1 July 15, 2011 Originally, I was planning to move to Houston, but I received a job offer that I cannot refuse. Here, Norfolk, I come! One slightly problem: I do not know anything about this town. My online research suggests that most area in Norfolk and Virginia Beach is not safe. Since my new position start on the second week of August, I do not have much time to look for a descent apartment at affordable price. I should mention that I have two dogs. Anyone here from Suffolk/Norfolk/Virginia Beach? Please contact me ASAP. Off Topic: It looks like I will begin my training at Skydive Suffolk. Anyone want to say something here?

VTmotoMike08 0 #2 July 15, 2011 Norfolk has some good areas, but you will need to make above average pay to live in them. Generally, the further east you get the better it is. The Ghent area is nice and reasonably safe. I live in Virgina Beach, no reason you couldn't live there. Plenty of nice areas in VB and affordable housing. There's plenty of jumpers from both Suffolk and West Point in this area. Welcome to town. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AviationTD 0 #4 July 15, 2011 I don't have a specific location for work. I will go to various locations around the town for work. One of the company's requirements stated that I must live within 40 miles from the airport. Of course, the airport where Skydive Suffolk located at does not apply!
