I have lived in kempsville Lake for almost a year now as a renter. Renters are not thought too highly of in this neighborhood. Not all renters are bad but the stereotypes are terrible in this community. We pay $200.00 a year in community fees and we are not allowed at the community meetings and have no voice in the community because we don't own that $200.00 is for pool privilages! Whoopee, I wouldn't use their pool if you paid me. I don't let my 10 year old son go out without supervison, the older punks in the neighborhood pick on the younger ones. The loud music from the cars flying up and down the streets is terrible, vandalism is rampat, it is on the border of beng a hood to be honest. It is NOT cheap to live there either. All the community cares about is if I have grass growing in the cracks of my driveway or if I have weeds in my flowerbed. If my gutter is straight. There is a man who actually walks around the neighborhhod and writes this stuff up to mail out to you. How about fixing the REAL problems like the kids who cause problems and the punk adults who act like punk kids. Sure tell me to move if I don't like it, well as a taxpayer and a law abiding citizen I shouldn't have to! Just be aware of your surroundings before you commit to this area (Virginia Beach and Kempsville Lake) in general!
Pros: nice homes
Cons: punk kids, vandalism, crime
