Relocation
wantbetter November 4, 2012
I am a mom of a 4th grader and a 7th grader and will more than likely be relocating to the Richmond area next summer. Can anyone tell me which schools and areas are better than others. Additionally, I am in college and looking for a good college to transfer to. I have been doing lots of research but first hand knowledge is always helpful. Living arrangements will be based around this information.

Hi wantbetter,
You might want to try to choose the college first before you move to an area, but there does seem to be several colleges and universities in Richmond to choose from.
If you want to choose the school first, start here: http://www.greatschools.org/find-schools/
You'll be able to look at the test scores, and read the parent reviews to get a better picture of the schools you want to tour.
You might also want to work with a real estate agent. They work with rentals as well as home buyers, and a real estate pro is in the best position to help you with community amenities and sought after communities.
Good luck.81398
