Rolling hills frame Southeast Charlottesville, just beyond the city
Southeast Charlottesville sits just outside of the city, where development gives way to quiet roads and rolling hills. The area stretches eastward from the city’s outskirts towards Lake Monticello, and residents enjoy living in a convenient location near Interstate 64, which facilitates commutes into both Charlottesville and Richmond. “There are a lot more people on the east side of town who also touch Richmond a lot,” says Jessica Russo, a Realtor and associate broker with Nest Realty Group. The area offers a mix of suburban and rural living, with lush nature trails, historic attractions and vineyards adding to its verdant landscape. The community’s CAP Index Crime Score is 3 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.
