Norfolk itself is one of the most dynamic cities on the East Coast, home to the world's largest naval station and a downtown that has steadily grown its arts, dining, and waterfront scene.

The city's street grid here is easy to navigate, commutes to multiple installations are short, and the neighborhood has the kind of lived-in familiarity that takes decades to build.
