Norfolk State University square near the Broad Creek neighborhood of Norfolk, Virginia.
Living near Norfolk State University and downtown Norfolk
Residents in the Broad Creek neighborhood don’t have to travel far to find restaurants, recreation spots or entertainment. With proximity to Norfolk State University, military bases, shopping, highways and restaurants, locals have quick access to everything Norfolk has to offer. “The big draw to Broad Creek is definitely its location,” says Ryan Fleming with COVA Home Realty who has over 14 years of experience as a Realtor. “It’s about 3 miles from downtown Norfolk, so you’ve got all the restaurants, museums, theaters and shopping nearby. You can actually see downtown Norfolk from the neighborhood.” Virginia Beach Boulevard runs along the neighborhood's southern edge, and Interstate 264 is right down the road, making it easy to get around the greater Norfolk area and beyond.

Driving or busing down East Princess Anne Road
Commuters heading to downtown Norfolk for work drive down East Princess Anne Road or East Virginia Beach Boulevard. Hampton Roads Transit buses also run along both routes for those who prefer public transportation. And when the urge hits to spend the day in Virginia Beach, drivers hop on Interstate 264, which lies south of Norfolk State University. Homeowners don’t have to go far to find churches in Broad Creek. There are five throughout the neighborhood, including Unity Lutheran Church and Woodland Avenue Baptist Church.
A Cape Cod home in the Broad Creek neighborhood of Norfolk, Virginia.
Wide streets lined with bungalows and Cape Cods
The grid-style streets of Broad Creek are lined with paved sidewalks and mature trees. Most of these single-family homes feature Cape Cod, bungalow and national-style designs. “I think it’s more of a traditional neighborhood. It’s more of an established neighborhood, so there’s not much new construction going on. I don’t see too many investment properties,” says Kenneth Foster with COVA Home Realty, a Realtor with over nine years of experience. Some residents live in the townhouses east of the Broad Creek Apartments. A three-bedroom home built in the 1950s with over 1,000 square feet, a moderate yard and uncovered parking can sell for around $250,000, while a four-bedroom home built in the 2010s with over 2,000 square feet, an attached garage and a large yard can sell in the $375,000 range. Because most homes have uncovered parking that can fit a couple of cars, it’s common to see vehicles parked along the wide streets. The CAP Index gives Broad Creek a crime score of 5 out of 10, with 4 being the national average. The neighborhood has an above-average rate of violent crimes. Broad Creek Civic League works in the area with holiday food drives and monthly meetings to connect neighbors with community leaders and discuss ways to improve the neighborhood.

After working up a sweat at the Salvation Army Kroc Center, locals can head across the street to Be A J Juice Bar for fresh smoothies, cold-pressed juices or jerk chicken wraps. Jesse’s Place is a local diner where hungry people go to order pancakes and coffee for breakfast or a club sandwich and apple pie for lunch. For a fun night on the town, residents can drive 3 miles to downtown Norfolk to explore the bars and restaurants there.

Fruit trees and walking trails at Broad Creek Legacy Park
In 2021, the City of Norfolk built the Broad Creek Legacy Park as part of a plan to refresh local neighborhoods. Visitors can walk along paved paths that wind around the grassy area, bring their kids to hang out on the playground equipment or relax in the sun on one of the many benches. The park also includes an urban orchard open for visitors to pick fresh fruit from the trees. Homeowners live within walking distance of the Salvation Army Kroc Center Hampton Roads, where members can drop their kids off for fun programs before heading to a fitness class or the pool. The Jordan-Newby Anchor Branch Library at Broad Creek sits north of the homes and offers Lo-Fi Study Hour for students and game nights on Tuesdays for teens.
