Waterfront living at accessible prices defines Bayview, where many homes offer Chesapeake Bay views and beach access.

Willoughby
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.
