A well-liked suburb in Lynchburg
Linkhorne is located smack dab in the middle of Lynchburg, making it a very central neighborhood. It’s comparable to Boonsboro, says Martin Donovan, 30-year Lynchburg Realtor with Lauren Bell Real Estate. “Linkhorne is known as a good place to live, but it has friendlier prices compared to surrounding areas,” he says. The suburb has two schools named after the neighborhood, Linkhorne Elementary and Middle School. “Families are attracted here because of the bigger homes and schools,” says Aaliya Robertson, a Lynchburg resident who grew up in the city and resides here. “It’s a nice little area.” Linkhorne sits near major employers in the city, such as the University of Lynchburg, Centra Lynchburg General Hospital, Centra Virginia Baptist Hospital and Randolph College. Commuters use U.S. Route 501 or Old Forest Road to reach work. “Old Forest Road has no stoplights, so people use that to get around quickly and avoid traffic,” Robertson says.
