Top neighborhoods in Newport News

Windsor Great Park
Windsor Great Park
What it’s like to live in Windsor Great Park
Suburban comfort defines Windsor Great Park, where this planned community in northern Newport News offers newer housing with contemporary amenities at rates significantly friendlier than comparable properties in Virginia Beach or Williamsburg. Rental townhomes and single-family homes typically feature open floor plans, attached garages, and community amenities like pools and playgrounds. The neighborhood provides good access to major employers including military installations, Newport News Shipbuilding, and the Jefferson Lab research facility. The planned environment lacks the historic character of older Peninsula communities, and most daily activities require driving. Particularly well-suited for military families, young professionals, and households who prefer predictable quality and modern layouts over historic architecture or maximum urban walkability.

What it’s like to live in Kiln Creek
Military families appreciate Kiln Creek's perfect positioning between multiple bases, creating reasonable commutes regardless of specific assignment. The neighborhood's planned community design includes walking trails connecting housing clusters with recreation facilities, eliminating vehicle requirements for many weekend activities. Unlike older Newport News neighborhoods, these properties typically feature modern amenities like master bathrooms and walk-in closets increasingly important for families sharing spaces. Most rental homes include garages – particularly valuable during coastal Virginia's hurricane season when vehicle protection becomes essential. What military families appreciate most: the neighborhood's significant population of fellow service members creates understanding of deployment challenges without the institutional feel of on-base housing, fostering community support systems particularly valuable during separation periods.

What it’s like to live in Newsome Park
Military accessibility defines Newsome Park, where Newport News' central neighborhood offers affordable housing options with reasonable commutes to multiple military installations. The district features modest homes and garden apartments with surprising space compared to newer developments. Though some blocks show varied investment levels, the proximity to both employment centers and shopping districts creates strategic positioning without premium pricing. The neighborhood's affordability compared to Virginia Beach or Williamsburg creates excellent value for service members seeking breathing room in their housing budget.

Overview of Findings

Apartment List has released Newport News’s results from the third annual Apartment List Renter Satisfaction Survey. This survey, which drew on responses from over 45,000 renters, provides insight on what states and cities must do to meet the needs of 111 million American renters nationwide.

"Newport News renters expressed general dissatisfaction with the city overall," according to Apartment List. "Some categories received average scores, and many received below average scores."

Key findings in Newport News include the following:

  • Newport News renters gave their city an F overall.
  • The highest-rated categories for Newport News were weather (A-), affordability (B) and public transit (B).
  • The areas of concern to Newport News renters were recreational activities (F), jobs and career opportunities (D), quality of local schools (D) and pet-friendliness (D).
  • Newport News did relatively poorly compared to other cities in Virginia, including Virginia Beach (A-), Norfolk (B) and Alexandria (A).
  • Newport News did relatively poorly compared to other cities nationwide, including Austin, TX (A-), Denver, CO (B+) and Seattle, WA (B+).
  • The top rated cities nationwide for renter satisfaction include Scottsdale, AZ, Irvine, CA, Boulder, CO and Ann Arbor, MI. The lowest rated cities include Tallahassee, FL, Stockton, CA, Dayton, OH, Detroit, MI and Newark, NJ.

Renters say:

  • "I like being surrounded by the military, colleges and that it’s close to bigger cities. But I don’t like the lack of employment opportunities and salaries aren’t comparable to the cost of living." – Karla P.
  • "I love that the city is diverse and that the cost of living isn’t too high. But the costs for registering older vehicles are unreasonable." – Natasha E.
  • "Love the weather, people, restaurants, activities. But I hate housing income restrictions, cost of living and traffic." – Florence M.
  • "Close access to malls and restaurants but the crime rate is high." – Anon.
