Meh. We didn't find the area to be "dead." Just depends on what you're looking for. My kids aren't interested in urban schools.

PP here. The immediate area was really devoid of any decent restaurants, nice parks, scenery, culture. I assume that the campus would have to suffice for the 4 years, or drive to Norfolk or VA Beach.

I went to a similar small school and we had a blast on staying on campus for the most part. A lot of students aren’t interested in an urban atmosphere and prefer the experience of immersing themselves in campus activities instead.Different strokes, and all that.

It's not that it's not in an urban area that's the turnoff. It's that it's in an area with no charm.

Again, charm is in the eye of the beholder. A PP already posted pictures of the lovely park and waterfront nearby. There are plenty of places the students enjoy going - they don't have to appeal to everyone.
