Kempsville: Off Base Area of Town


Silver medal 12 reviews

"Kempsville - easy commute to everything"

Kempsville was a great middle ground between a commute to NOB and Portsmouth Shipyard, being roughly 20 mins each way. All the shopping and restaurants needed were within 10 mins, easy on and off the freeway and several family friendly communities. We felt completely safe being alone during a deployment and our daughter thrived at the elementary and middle school offerings.

This is a great area to live. Central to many bases in the area. It has a suburban feel but very close to many amenitites, shopping, and big box stores. Kempsville HS has a lot of team spirit and many kids grow up together.

The Kempsville area of Virginia Beach is older. Our house is near Stumpy Lake, and we have the feeling of living farther out of the city (when we are actually close). We are very conveniently located to the highway (I-64), and close to the Greenbrier area of Chesapeake, Landstown, Town Center, and Lynnhaven mall shopping areas. It's also convenient to drive to the rural areas of VB and Chesapeake for things like berry picking, horse back riding, etc.
