Seniors Find Virginia Beach A Great City

NBC News says that “Virginia Beach is the best-run city in the U.S and is one of the most prosperous in the country.” At the southern end of the Chesapeake Bay, along the Atlantic Ocean in southern Virginia, seniors discover the lovely seaside resort community.

Popular with golfers, families, and college students on spring break, the resort is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as having the “longest pleasure beach in the world.”Virginia Beach is home to approximately 400,000 permanent residents, but that number rises exponentially during the summer as vacationers flock to enjoy the area.

Beaches span almost 40 miles, fringing the Resort Area, Chesapeake Bay, and Sandbridge, each with an individual feel and character… lively beaches, quiet beaches, beaches with incredible views, and access to scores of things to do.

Town Center is a popular stop when visiting Virginia Beach. From entertainment to shopping to dining to Town Center hotels, there is little left to want for when exploring the new, affluent destination.

Covering almost twenty city blocks, the center is one of the best places to stay aside from the oceanfront, and is conveniently located only fifteen minutes from the Boardwalk, the heart and soul of the city.
