Top neighborhoods in Norfolk

  • East Ocean View

    East Ocean View

    What it’s like to live in East Ocean View

    Beachfront accessibility defines East Ocean View, where rental homes along Chesapeake Bay offer direct water access at significantly better rates than Virginia Beach oceanfront properties. The neighborhood features a mix of vintage cottages and new construction with varied price points. Though some blocks show investment transitions, the combination of affordability and beach proximity creates compelling value for water enthusiasts seeking authentic coastal living.

    What it’s like to live in Bayview

    Waterfront living at accessible prices defines Bayview, where many homes offer Chesapeake Bay views and beach access. The laid-back neighborhood feels removed from city hustle despite being just minutes from downtown Norfolk and major military installations. Rental options include everything from beach bungalows to larger family homes, though hurricane evacuation orders affect this zone during serious storms.

    What it’s like to live in Willoughby

    Waterfront proximity defines Willoughby, where renters enjoy beach access at prices below oceanfront Virginia Beach. Garden apartments and duplexes often feature unexpected water views or walking access to Willoughby Bay beaches. Though hurricane preparation becomes essential during storm seasons, the neighborhood's position on the protected bay side reduces direct storm surge concerns affecting oceanfront properties. The strong military presence from nearby Naval Station Norfolk creates understanding of deployment schedules, with many property managers offering military clauses and flexibility uncommon in standard rental agreements.
