Where Cul-De-Sacs Meet The Chesapeake

🧭Generally defined as the area: stretching from Big Bethel Road down to LaSalle Avenue, bordered by Armistead Avenue to the west and roughly Interstate 64 to the north, wrapping around Langley Air Force Base's southern edge

📌Best known for: being Hampton's solidest middle class enclave with actual yards

👕You'll fit in if: you mow every Saturday and wave at passing neighbors, if you are 62+ and want a resort-style condo

👍Locals live here because: the schools are decent and nothing ever burns down

👎Don't say we didn't warn you about: zero walkability and the constant drone of fighter jets overhead

✨The general vibe is: quiet cul de sacs and careful landscaping
