How lgbtq-friendly is Lexington?

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!

Relocating

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!

Cellular coverage mystery

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. ???!

What is missing

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.

White Cat

Found this white cat near East Nelson Street. Looks very hungry and very friendly. Has a blue glittery collar. If she belongs to anyone please let us know or we will give it to a shelter in the morning.

Summer

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.

New to the area, suggestions restaurants/bars/other fun spots

Hi there, new to the area. Living here till the end of October. I work for a conservation non-profit in trail work/data collection on said trails and forests. I'd love to talk more about that maybe in pms but I'm more interested in learning about lexington and the surrounding areas. Feel free to message me if you like but otherwise here works.

Edit: Any info on local bike or hiking clubs would be appreciated too. I'll be organizing volunteer events periodically, likely every month, and would love to meet locals interested in public land stewardship. If that sounds like your thing, pm me, and I can keep you in the loop.

Historic Hampton Inn in Lexington -any creepy experiences to share? Just curious.

Just got back from a short trip and heard of couple of stories involving ghost soldiers at night there , moving objects. I had experienced some flickering nights and elevators acting funny but nothing really bad. Just wondering if anyone’s has any stories/ experiences from that hotel.

Bike routes in the area?

Don’t want to pay for a bike app to get routes and as much as I enjoy the Chessie Trail, it’s getting a bit boring. Any places you all love to bike?
