I'm going if anyone needs a ride. Leaving Lex between 5:30 and 6. Coming straight back after the gig. I don't drink and I don't want to babysit a f-d up person. Holler if you're up for it.

edit: It's fine if you're drunk or whatever just not out of control.

Having spent my beloved college years in Lexington, the town will always have a special place in my heart. I recently returned for my 20th reunion and had the crazy idea of potentially moving there for a few years. My job has been remote since 2020 so I could still earn a lucrative salary, and the cost of living would be far less than where I’m currently located. With that said, I have only lived in big, international cities in the US and Europe, so this would be a huge change.

Does this sound like a dumb idea that W&L and VMI alumni occasionally engage in and later regret? I’m single, have no kids, and am definitely in the middle of my mid-life crisis in case that helps to provide context.

We moved to Lexington in june and today we got a mail that says we have to pay around $600 for the personal property taxes. It says this is only from June 2024 to Dec 2024. Do guys pay the property taxes twice per year? Like next year in May we will have to pay another $600? Or how does it work in Lexington? Thanks in advance

Hi, my partner might end up at a job in Lexington VA and I am a remote worker with an office in DC. We were wondering how crazy it would be to either live in Lexington and commute to DC once a week or so, and vice-versa (live in DC but go to Lexington). Anyone do this?

My daughter was traveling from Lexington to RVA and her tire blew. She was able to counter steer to avoid other vehicles and no one was injured. Because she hit the median she was cited. No speeding, drugs or alcohol involved. We are traveling to court tomorrow. She has pictures of the vehicle and wheel and tire, signed statement from her passengers. What do we do, not guilty? I’m phobic of courts due to my ex so I’m super nervous. Any beneficial words of advice?

Does anyone have a reference for who can repair and regrade our gravel driveway? The recent rains have done a number on it!

My teen daughter is neurodivergent and bi, and faces a lot of bullying and intolerance at her school where the social scene is hyper-conformist. Looking for a friendlier, more accepting community and high school where she isn’t isolated and taunted for being “different.” Considering Staunton; should we also be looking at Lexington? Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone! Hopefully this post is allowed, if not I apologize in advance. I'll be moving to Lexington from Florida without a job..... really risky, but I'm going to stay hopeful. Unfortunately I can't find much on Indeed. I realize Lexington is a small town but I visited not too long ago and there seems to be quite a bit of opportunity around. I'm 24, and my job history has revolved around waitressing past couple years, and customer service desk in grocery store. Is the best option to call around? please help me out!

Anybody else having trouble with cellular coverage outside WiFi access? I like to listen to podcasts when I walk, and one day it just cut off; from then on “not connected”. Same downtown, etc. My carrier, Ting, uses Verizon towers - I called them and they show coverage here is great. Someone on NextDoor reported this problem in the south part of the county, and another poster suggested that it was iphone’s SOS feature interfering. ???!

The RGC is having our monthly meeting at Brew Ridge Gaps on 9/29, 4-7pm. See you there!

Looking for guidance and recommendations. I would like to get a load of dirt delivered to smooth out my yard, who should I call and how much can I expect to pay?

Visiting for the weekend. Are there any night clubs ? Strip clubs etc etc. I’m looking for drinks music and women. 👀

Hey all! Looking for the best deals in Lexvegas when it comes to eating out. Any tips to share? 🍔🌭🌮🌯🥙

lost my id lol

I know what I feel is missing from Lexington but what do you think is missing?

I have teenagers and while they are generally happy playing on their screens, I’d love for them to have more to do in the community.

Hey guys! 29 year old women originally from Florida and new to the area looking for cool witchy alt leftish friends who like drinking and gossip, thrifting, nature, and cooking/dinner party’s. If that’s you send me a message and I’ll give ya my instagram

This is my first summer here and I am really struggling with the heat. Is it always this bad?? It doesn't even cool off at night. It feels like south Florida but without the breeze.
