Located on the Virginia Peninsula and boasting miles of astounding water views, Hampton is a diverse community with properties for every taste. The town sits between Chesapeake Bay and Hampton Roads Harbor. Hampton is home to Langley Air Force Base and is only 25 minutes away from the Norfolk Naval Station, making the city a popular spot for armed service personnel, civilian military employees, and military retirees. However, Hampton is great for civilians as well with gorgeous waterfront homes, upscale neighborhoods, and affordable apartments available for every budget.
The area’s rich past is on display all over town, from the exhibits of the Hampton History Museum to landmarks like the centuries-old Fort Monroe and to the modern marvels of the Virginia Air and Space Center. The town is also home to the historic Hampton University. For entertainment, catch an event at the award-winning Hampton Coliseum which hosts the annual famed Hampton Jazz Festival.
