Where can I sleep in my car?

I work for UPS and I have recently lost my home in Asheville so I packed what was left of my car and have nowhere to go so I transferred here. I have found that they are very strict about sleeping in your car. Are the any safe places where I won’t get bothered by cops and crime?

Looking for Balkan grocery stores or restaurants anywhere in Hampton Roads

Preferably in VB, but I haven't been able to find anything in the area that makes or sells Balkan groceries, more specifically Serbian foods. I'm dying to find a restaurant, but I'm okay with trying to make some things myself if I can get some ingredients.

I've searched, but searches mostly turn up Turkish and Mediterranean places.. I've tried the international groceries but that's mostly Asian and Mexican foods. Is there anything in the area?

Where to walk after dark?

Now that it gets dark at lunchtime, I’ve lost my go-to post-work walking spot (Mt Trashmore).

Any ideas for a well lit park or neighborhood that makes for nice evening walks?

Nimmo Parkway westward extension

Is there any info out there about plans to extend Nimmo Parkway west of the Veterans care center? I look at satellite imagery and it looks like a right-of-way exists to eventually build this, but the only literature I can find online is for the extension to Sandbridge.

Neighborhoods for Young Families

My job just relocated me to Norfolk and we're looking for a neighborhood for young families (we're millennials) in Virginia Beach. We do have a little bit of a higher budget from the sale of our home that went well. My wife lived in VB 15+ years ago while her dad was stationed in the Navy but doesn't really remember because she was in Middle School.

Can anyone suggest any awesome areas that are safe and family friendly maybe good school district? Walkability and close to things is a major plus for us but not required & also doesn't have to be directly oceanside.

Thank you!

DMV REGISTRATION

My SIL purchased an SUV and is going to get it registered. She went online to calculate the DMV fees and they seem very high just to register and for plates. Its saying DMV fees would be $700 for a $15k car. Does that seem high to pay when registering or is that normal? I dont think Ive ever paid that much when Ive gone to the DMV to renew my car.

Do cops stop for tints lower than 50% anymore?

I'm seeing a lot of illegal front side window tints here now. VBPD must have cut back on pulling over for or just choose who they want to pick on. Asking because I'm tempted to get also.

Drive Conditions

I am in the military and recently received an order to NAS Oceana. We have never been to Virginia. My family and I are looking into living in the Little Creek area. How is the drive in the morning from Little Creek, more specifically Bayside area to Oceana? I can obviously google maps it, but hearing from folks that know the traffic and area would be more beneficial. Thank you all.

Middle School Math Tutor

Does anyone have any good math tutor recommendations? My son is struggling in math (middle school). He stays for after school help but I still want to be proactive with getting him more confident. Has anyone used Mathnasium on Great Neck Rd?

Relocating

Hello, I'm looking for information on the local culture. I have narrowed down a few cities off the east coast that seem to offer a similar cost of living to Louisville KY. We are two dads and our toddler son. I was curious if VB might be a good fit? I have a background in teacher education and education consulting. My husband is a nurse practitioner. I'm curious to know what parents of toddlers like about the area. Thank you for the feedback.

Other areas were considering:

  1. Other places in Virginia
  2. Delaware
  3. Upstate New York.

Marine Corps Birthday 10 Nov

Any Marines with boats in the area? 10 Nov will be a pretty nice day to head out on the Lynnhaven River to do some fishing and celebrating the Corps’ birthday. The sand bar is a nice place to rendezvous! Low tide 8:38 Am and high at 2:54 PM.

Looking for a seller- friendly pawn shop in Vb?

I'm from the Cash Converter days over at Hilltop...where you could bring in some DVDs and your old TV or a few bucks. Yes they lowballed at times, but it sure helped for gas & groceries some days. So I'm wondering....are there any pawn shops in VB that do something similar? I've never been in one and the commercials seem like they only take fine jewelry. And I guess I don't really get how they work.I don't want to get the stuff (some basic jewelery, small tech stuff, office supplies) back, I'd like to just clear out and cash out. Any suggestions or recommendations?
