Portsmouth is a city in Virginia located on the west side of the Elizabeth River. Its population of over 96,000 people makes it the eighth-largest metropolitan area in the southeastern United States. Because of its nautical surroundings, Portsmouth is a maritime dynamo. The city’s most prominent feature is its downtown waterfront, the center of its many activities.
Portsmouth has a long history as both a city and a seaport. Old Towne is its most prominent business and historical district. It was originally ruled by British settlers and named for a British naval seaport in Portsmouth, England. There, you can check out its unique shops, dine at one of its restaurants, or spend some time at the art galleries. It’s even home to Virginia’s largest children's museum. This city has many parks and athletic areas for playing sports, skating, viewing a concert at an amphitheater, and more. At Portsmouth City Park, you and your family can ride the Pokey Smoky II, a train that runs on gasoline rather than coal. For an interactive history lesson, take a self-guided tour throughout this city. You will see old churches, the Confederate Memorial, the Commodore Theater, among other historic sites. If you want to enjoy music and get a beautiful view of the waterfront, you can visit the Portsmouth Pavilion, a 6,500-seat performing arts center. Popular events like the Portsmouth Tuner Fest and the Virginia Craft Beer and Wine Festival occur there, too. Portsmouth has a great selection of schools for kids: 13 elementary schools, three middle schools, and four high schools. There’s also one community college for adults.
The real estate properties in Portsmouth are made up of apartments, townhouses, mobile homes, and single-family dwellings. Many Portsmouth homes were built between 1940-1960, so they are somewhat ancient, yet well-established. Most residences here have between two to three bedrooms. Portsmouth is a nice place in which to live. It does an excellent job of blending history, a nautical environment, and city charm. It also has great weather and provides easy access to necessary amenities.
