Where History and Progress Meet!

In 1963, the resort area known as Virginia Beach and Princess Anne County merged to become a large city of approximately 260 square miles. Virginia Beach, due to its incredible size, is broken down into seven smaller "boroughs", - Bayside, Blackwater, Kempsville, Lynnhaven, Princess Anne, Pungo, and Virginia Beach.

With a current population of over 440,000 people, Virginia Beach has been known for its reputation as a resort area since the late 1880s. Contrary to popular belief, Virginia Beach has a lot to offer not only to its yearly visitors, but to its current and potential citizens as well. Boasting the 4th highest median income in the United States (2002 US Census Survey), Virginia Beach has a thriving and highly diverse economy.

Virginia Beach also has miles and miles of beautiful farmland. We call this area Pungo, and the 'Pungo Strawberry Festival' is held annually every Memorial Day weekend. The highlight of this festival is all the strawberries you can eat - prepared in over 50 different ways! In addition, the festival offers activities for all ages including a pie-eating contest, several racing car exhibits, one of the largest carnivals on the east coast, continuous entertainment on 4 stages, a parade, and much more!
