Can anyone tell me their recent experience (within 5ish years) in Orchard Glen apartments off Sudley Rd? I've been going through reviews but most are a decade old. Had a look at the place and overall doesn't seem bad, but some of the older reviews got me worried. Main concerns are some of the review mentioned bug/rodent problems and if that's the case I'd rather just save my money. Also read some issues with maintenance and staff but haven't had any problems yet. Maybe it's new staff or just haven't moved in yet to tell. Overall is it a safe place to live and am I gonna have to worry about any roaches/mice?

I'm very interested in hearing about the experiences of homeless persons living in Manassas, and I'm curious if there are any on here who would be willing to talk about it, or if there is anyone who would like to share an experience they had with a homeless person.

We were warned about moving to manassas, but we’ve lived on side near manassas park library for over 2 years now and love it. Before we moved here everyone was like “ugh be safe!” “Ugh second hoodbridge..” but we’ve been…fine? I mean, I grew up in a trailer park so maybe my bias is skewed but we’ve loved it here…anyone else deal with this sentiment or stereotype when you moved here or is that just a NOVA thing if you can’t afford Fairfax or Arlington….?

is there open skateparks nearby today?

Manassas City Police have cleared all curbside parking on Liberia Ave due to the pending snow emergency.

Flares are out down the street with officers parked to ensure compliance. Stay safe out there, everyone, here we go.

PWCS closed Code Red Monday, January 6 due to Winter Storm Warning.  More: www.pwcs.edu

A friend let me barrow his car for a few days and was wondering if I could park there without getting towed or is there some other spot I could park temporarily?

We are moving and today is our final trip (you must be able to pick up).

Giving away:

1x Large, executive office desk w/ 2x cabinets and 2x drawers built in - Used, Moderate wear

Like the title says apparently someone nearby in the sudley area is shooting off fireworks when it's well after midnight.

It's really annoying when people do this crap when most residents in the area are trying to get some sleep.

What the heck does fireworks have to do with the Christmas holiday anyway? It obviously must be stricter a Hispanic thing?

I’m looking to relocate from MD to VA. Houses around Osbourn High School (I don’t know the names of the neighborhoods) seem affordable but are they safe for a single female?

I recently moved here from Louisville, KY with my husband. I am looking to meet female friends. I am 29 and enjoy working out, nature, concerts, yoga, traveling, etc. No weirdos please just trying to connect.

$400 for both, originally cost us $900 at Mattress Firm.

Lightly used in guest bedroom. We are moving to a smaller unit and do not have space for an extra bed.

Would love to hear where in the area you can drive through neighborhoods that go all out for Christmas.

And please don’t suggest Bull Run Park. That’s so not Christmas it is a joke!

Anybody know what’s going on today? My girlfriend called and told me there were about 20 cops in what looked like a procession. Was curious if anyone knew what was going

Looking for adult volleyball players in the Manssass Parka area. If you are interested in competitive or recreational play, reach out!

Let’s rent the gym space at Manassas Park Community Center and play!

Does anyone remember from when years ago (sometime around 2009-2011) there used to be a small Toys R Us in Manassas Mall? I can't find any info online. It was there for only a few months, I remember visiting it several times, and it was located where Shoe Dept. Encore currently is.

Sidenote: Did anyone go to the temporary Chick Fil-A location in the food court when it was there, not too long ago? Seemed like it was only there for a week or two, wonder what that was about.

It’s becoming difficult to find a PF2e game so I’m offering this

I hadn't eaten at Joe's at GTS in a long time because my kids don't like the greasy pizza, which we pizza lovers know the greasy pizza is the best.

I'm sad to report that the hot zep hoagie was school quality and the pizza wasn't much better.

I guess a lot can change in ten years because back in the day they were close to Tony's quality. 🥹🥺

I wanted to take a moment to share something deeply personal and meaningful to me. At 23, I faced an unimaginable loss when I lost my mother to alcohol addiction. It was a painful journey that led me to struggle with my own mental health for nearly a decade. During that time, I often searched for a purpose and a way to turn my pain into something positive.

Today, I’m proud to announce that I’ve opened a mental health counseling practice, The Counseling Corner. We are building a team of incredible clinicians, each of whom shares a commitment to help others navigate difficult times and find hope and healing. Our goal is to create a safe space where people can feel understood, supported, and empowered on their journey to wellness. We’re here to save lives and help individuals reclaim their strength. If you or someone you know is looking for support, please reach out. Together, we can make a difference and continue the fight to destigmatize mental health while helping others to take that step if they are dealing with a challenge. Thank you for allowing me to share this journey with you.

We operate via telehealth to expand coverage throughout the entire state.

Has anyone heard anything about or been to Manassas Church of God on Rixlew? I attended a few services there about 2 years ago and had a pretty subpar experience. Has anyone else experienced something similar?

What is the deal with the right lane turn off going from Sudley onto Grant ave? It’s been blocked off for like 6 months by those stupid orange cones with no visible work being done there. I’ve lost count of the times I’ve been bottle necked there by one car that’s going straight thru when I should be able ti easily turn right onto there.
