McGuire Veterans Hospital sits at the heart of Southside Richmond, centered on the renowned Richmond VA Medical Center. Residents appreciate the convenience of world-class care next door, straightforward commutes via Chippenham Parkway and I‑95, and frequent GRTC service along Broad Rock Boulevard that makes car-optional living feasible. Just up the road, Manchester offers creative workspaces, coffee spots, and riverfront skyline views.
Outdoors, the James River Park System beckons with paddling, woodland trails, and wildlife watching, while Forest Hill Park delivers lake loops, shaded picnic groves, and seasonal festivals tied to the nearby Forest Hill area. History-minded residents enjoy quick trips to Civil War sites and the river’s working canal locks, and anglers often slip down to Ancarrow’s Landing for quiet sunrise casts.
Families are served by Broad Rock Elementary School, Boushall Middle School, and Huguenot High School, part of Richmond Public Schools, with growing specialty programs and active athletics. Housing options range from tidy mid‑century ranches to newer townhomes and spacious lots near the city–county line with Chesterfield County.
