MICHAELS WOODS and the Hampton real estate market
Hampton, Virginia is one of the oldest English-speaking settlements in the country, and it has spent the last few decades quietly reinventing itself into one of the most livable cities on the Peninsula.

Neighborhoods here tend to be established and tree-lined, with a mix of working families, military households, and long-term residents who simply like where they live.
