Virginia Beach, a great place to move to:
The Norfolk and Virginia Beach area is centrally located on the East Coast where the state of Virginia meets the Atlantic Ocean. It's one of the fastest-growing areas in the country, which means you won.t be the only one checking out local apartments for rent. Luckily, there are plenty of apartment rentals to accommodate all the newcomers to the area.
Quality of Life
One of the nicest perks of living in Norfolk or Virginia Beach is the climate. The area is largely protected from most northern storms and southern hurricanes and tropical storms, so the weather is sunny and mild much of the year. The average annual temperature is a very comfortable 60 degrees, and there's only a bit of snow (7 inches per year on average, although some years have none at all). Unfortunately, you can't spend every non-snowy day on the beach: There's plenty of rain.an average of 45 inches per year.which keeps the landscape green and fresh.

Residents take advantage of the nice weather and fresh air to leave their apartments and enjoy the area's beautiful beaches, boardwalks and city sidewalks. Popular recreational activities include fishing, boating, walking and enjoying all the readily abundant, delicious seafood. Area attractions include the battleship U.S.S. Wisconsin, the National Maritime Center, the Chrysler Museum, Norfolk Botanical Gardens and the Virginia Zoological Park.

Where the Jobs Are
Norfolk and Virginia Beach are popular resort areas, so it's no wonder that the economy centers on tourism, although agriculture and nearby military bases are factors as well. In fact, the world's largest navy base is headquartered in Norfolk, so the military is a major employer for the area. Finances, education and healthcare are also significant sources of jobs for the region.
