Pet Friendly Apartments for Rent in Madison Heights, VA

"Heaven's Virginia when the year's at its Spring." So writes Madison Heights area poet Anne Spencer, in the poem "Life-Long, Poor Browning." In the very center of Virginia, the almost 20-square miles that make up the Madison Heights community feature rivers, mountains, and year-round mild weather that inspired Anne Spencer.

Natural borders and strategic location made the area critical to the US Civil War, and nearby Lynchburg was a hub for Confederate hospitals and supplies. The most amazing claim to fame? Though the Union Army came within a mile of Madison Heights and Lynchburg, this section of Virginia was never conquered. It stayed in Confederate hands until the war ended. When you move to Madison Heights, you won't have to worry about armies encroaching. More important, you can avoid the deep cold that plagues northern states, as winter days generally don't drop below 40 degrees. Sure, it's not shorts and t-shirt weather, but it's pretty great when you can go outside in January without getting frostbite on your nose.
